In the field I always struggle between Hairy and Downy woodpecker if I only get a glance. Looking at this photo it was definitly a Hairy Woodpecker. Happpy I got out and touched grass.

Saw around 60 species of birds today at Point Pelee. It truly is a festival of birds. Well post my final tally and some selection of birds once I get home and process the pictures I took. Some lifers were the prothonotary warbler, American woodcock and white eyed vireos

Election day here in Canada, find some time to participate in society and caste a ballot. Remember you don't get to complain about the government for the next few years unless you vote.

Great Horned Owl update: lugged out a tripod and used a teleconvertor to take some some 4k videos of the great horn owl nest. Now I'm wondering if I should be looking at parabolic microphones although probably not in the budge this year

I back tracked to where I saw the great horn owl I saw yesterday to see where it came from and I think I found its mate sitting in a nest. Going to track this over the coming weeks. Hopefully will see some fledglings in a couple of weeks

Found the hooter that I heard a couple of days ago. Not the best photos of a great horn owl but first ones in awhile for me. Hopefully I can find where the nest is and figure out a good angle for clearer shots

I never knew about this awesome Steam library feature. It allows you to narrow down what games you have in common with friends to play together, even narrow down by genres/tags etc. VERY HELPFUL.
