Hey Russ,
Some good birds there.
I?ve had a good owl in recent days myself here in Nakusp thanks to Gary 
Davidson. Northern Hawk Owl.
Couldn?t get a great photo ? cracking views though ? the owl sat atop a large 
fir tree like a star on a Christmas tree. It also sensibly hunts through the 
day!
Cheers  
Ken

Have had a good week of owl watching on the Sunshine Coast with visiting 
interstate and overseas birders. Good flying views of Eastern Grass Owl at 
Marcoola on Mon.at dusk, followed by perched Plumed (Marbled) Frogmouth at 
Mapleton later in night. Thursday night heard both Boobook and Tawny Frogmouth 
from home, plus a single tyto screech .
Highlight of week was finding a roosting Sooty Owl at Mary Cairncross Park, 
high-up in a picabeen palm, with pellets below containing small rodent 
skulls.Later in day saw two newly fledged Tawny Frogmouth chicks with an adult 
in back yard of friend's house in town.
