Seen this morning roosting beside busy Sturt Highway at 10am on the main road into town. It was in a deciduous tree with very little spring growth so very much out in the open beside the road. It was flushed by my grandchildren getting out for a look!!
I searched later this afternoon and found about the owl 1 km away in a eucalpyt on the roadside – in fact at 242 Sturt Highway. Bob and Penne Carr came down and also took photos.
Cheers,
Judy

Hi Michael,
I wondered about this too, but on checking both Eremaea and Birdata, it appears there have been sporadic sightings in the area over the years.
I wonder if anyone else has first-hand sightings of this species around Wagga? I would also like to see photos of this sighting.

There have been many reports of Barn Owls recently, could this bird be that species.Masked Owls are very scarce inland, a Barn Owl would for more around the Wagga area. Be great to see some of the photos to check. Michael Ramsey> From: judyleitch@gotalk.net.au
