Great Horned Owl nesting in Methuen GBH Rookery
When you get out on the rail trail this year keep an eye out for a Great Horned Owl. He has taken up residence in one of the Great Blue Heron Nests out in the Rookery on the Spicket River.
Specifically if you are standing on the trail looking west into the Spicket at all the Heron nests his is the furthest to the LEFT (south.)
Robbie Valcourt has taken a few shots of him in his nest and out of it. He may be hard to see in the deep nest but he will be the one with out the long neck!
So bring your binocs and your long lenses.

Recently I took a little trip through the Arch of the Rail Road Bridge on the Spicket.
