I observed a Snowy Owl today (1PM) at Orient State Park at the location described by Patrick Haney in his post of Jan 17 copied below.
================ Snowy Owl - Observed late this afternoon on the north side of the road just before you reach the ranger station. The ranger told us two individual birds have been hanging around since before Christmas but they were out on the beach where it was a long walk to get to them. This past week one of the two individuals has moved into the marsh and that is the bird we observed.
