I was stunned to see my friend Betty Petersen in the first minutes of the video. Receiving news of her passing in June 2013 greatly saddened me, so it really warmed my heart to see her "being Betty" - snapping photos of the Snowy Owl and showing her sense of wonder. Thank you, Kathy, for sharing the video.

I also subscribe to CTBirds and in the past week there have been a couple of great posts about the owls on their listserv. The first is a video shot at Plum Island during the SNOW invasion of 2011/2012. Contrary to popular belief, they have found that the owls are not starving and not stressed. It is a great video and talks about the owls relocated from Logan Airport. http://shawncarey.zenfolio.com/p414081867/h199a36f8#h199a36f8"; The second is a link to a blog written by Scott Kruitbosch about this year's invasion. He pulls apart ebird data and presents some pretty interesting stats. http://rtpi.org/snowy-owl-sightings-and-statistics/ Let's keep our eyes open!
