Hi all: Though I've only skimmed most of the Snowy Owl (SNOW) posts, I haven't seen anyone tackle the age and sex of the beast. Someone ought to take out her or his copy of Pyle, part I (http://www.slatecreekpress.com/), and figure it out. These sorts of data are important in understanding things like occurrences of irruptive species.
