Owls at Bennington Lake

We found four long-eared owls and two great horned owls on our Tuesday morning walk this week.  The lake was full of waterfowl - 200 canada geese, 50 northern pintails, 32 mallards, 21 common mergansers and a green-winged teal.  Although the temperatures were in the 50's, the little birds were much harder to find because of the stiff wind that kept them hunkered down.  Fun to see the owls....  Ginger
