This afternoon around 2:05 Ron Erpelding and I were able to refind the Snowy Owl that had been reported in Redwood County. The location is 0.4 miles south of 240th St. on CR13. There are two wood fence posts on the west side of the road at that point which are part of a former fence line. The bird was along the former fence line quite a distance from the road on a little knoll. We had to use a scope to be certain that it was actually a Snowy Owl.
After that we headed back to Brown County to search for the Snowy Owl that we had unsuccessfully searched for earlier in the day. We instead found another Snowy Owl along the way. This was a very dark immature female sitting on the ground 1.8 miles east of Hwy4 along CR22. The bird was about 150 yards away on the south side of CR22, roughly 0.2 miles west of house number 24955.
