This is just a friendly reminder for anyone who is planning to look for
owls in the Sax-Zim Bog--please be safety conscious while birding! If
we get ice on the roads this weekend from possible rain, the area could
become dangerous to those who are looking at owls and not paying
attention to traffic on the roads. My DNR colleagues who work in the
area have asked me to relay this reminder to birders. The people who
live in the area are concerned. Please spread the word. Enjoy the
owls, but don't stop in the middle of the road, and pay attention to
traffic so there isn't an accident.
