This Boreal Owl was photographed by a homeowner in the town of Barnes along the Bayfield/Douglas County line on Saturday, February 9. Freezing rain and some snow on Sunday along with some impending cold later this week may cause more Boreals to hunt diurnally in the days ahead. http://www.flickr.com/photos/32706210@N05/8468705818/in/photostream This is Wisconsin's 4th confirmed Boreal Owl since autumn. A 5th bird (not photographed) is pending review by the WSO Records Committee.
