When I received the following e-mail, I couldn't resist taking the 173 mile drive to get these pictures. I've been working six days a week, couldn't stay and camp. It was a four hour drive each way, to spend a hour at the nest.

[AK Birding] Great Grey Owls are back!

I just got word from Graham Ward at Tolsona Wilderness Campground.

Here is what he said:

After a three year absence, The Great Gray Owls are nesting at Tolsona again.

The Campground opens on May 20 but you may call or email to see if we will be available on a specific day before then. The babies usually fledge during the first week of June and we can normally locate them for about a week after that.

I never know what is fair to charge but I for this year (which may be our last) I will ask from each group, $5 per person with a $20 minimum.
