I guess these were taken on either Wolfe Island or Amherst Island. I am thinking of heading there in the next few days. Are the owls fairly plentiful in the area this year?

Actually just west of Kingston along the roadside, they is a good number on both island with Wolfe Island having the majority. Once the snow owls start heading back to their breeding grounds end March early April many of the Northern United States snowies will stop on both islands to spend a few days feeding. At this point there is likely to be a couple of dozen or more at anyone time spread out over the many open fields they have.

IanD Cream of the Crop Honorary Moderator ![]() More info | Mar 06, 2018 17:54 | #6 I was at Amherst just a couple of weeks ago. Lots of owls but as others have stated, the turbine construction is playing the heck with traffic. The crews are very friendly and eager to answer questions but it is a messy scene and will only get messier as things thaw. Wolfe Island, to my feelings, has more Snowies than Amherst. A lot more driving but so be it. Ian (®Feathers & Fur)
