Owls in Toronto (1 Viewer)

November 24 I'll go to Toronto for 10 days. It's actually a family trip, but I want to spend 3–4 days to go for bird photography.
Can someone give me advice, where I can find Owls, doesn't matter what kind of species.
Thanks in advance

If you go to ebird, you can search by location and/or by species.
Try the "hotspot" map.
I checked a couple of parks; they have a few species of owl but not often spotted.
I'd also keep checking for reports of snowy owls. It's a little early in the season, but if one does come by, it's likely to stay in one place for a while. They're active in daylight and like open spaces, so they're much easier to see than other owls in this part of the world.
You may be best off with local advice. I didn't find an Audubon club for Toronto, but I did find this: Toronto Ornithological Club

I've checked already eBird reports, and as you mentioned, there are not so my observations during last few days.
Toronto Ornithological Club sound very promised, thanks.
