 Yes, to your point, Dave, I learned that in northern Minnesota, under normal 
weather circumstances, the "local" birds appeared towards dusk, and the 
visiting, wintering birds would be more active during the day.

Unless the owls are feeling "stressed" for food, they are crepuscular in their 
appearances-dusk and dawn. We just returned from Northern Minnesota where, in 
this unusually warm winter weather, the Great Grays really did not appear out 
 in the open until 400-530pm. So, Jeff Bolsinger, it may be advantageous for 
you and your crew to check back towards dusk today, if possible. These large 
owls seemingly appear out of nowhere when they come out.
