The Snowy Owl was sitting on our south fence line Am. Kestrel nestbox about 150 yrds west of 580th ave. 1.5 miles north of 13th street.
The bird flew northwest and faded into the fog. I was not able to relocate it after driving the area. Tree Sparrows, Horned Larks and a few Snow Buntings were about the only other birds of note in the area. If you attempt to look for the owl use extreme caution as the roads out here are icy and there is not much of a shoulder along the steep ditches.
