Hello, Vermont and New Hampshire birders! Thursday and Friday of this week, a group from Mass Audubon's Joppa Flats Education Center in Newburyport is traveling north in search of "winter specialties." We were to have gone last week, but a little weather (!) suggested that we delay the trip. One of our target species is the Northern Hawk Owl seen regularly in the Ferdinand, VT, area. I have not seen a recent post on this bird and will appreciate any knowledge of its continued presence -- or lack thereof. Thanks very much! Good birding!
