Folks: On the way home from having a nice long look at Antony John's beautiful, pure white, adult Snowy Owl west of Stratford (still there as of 4:15pm), I encountered a second Snowy (immature) just west of Russeldale. This one was sitting on the hydro poles on the south side of the road (MUCH closer view than the Stratford owl). The intersection is Hwy 83 (Thames Road) and Road 168 (Line 12). This was about 7 miles east of Exeter. Very nice year for Snowy's apparently... Good birding, and Happy New Year.
