I got a phone call around 3:30 this afternoon from a neighbor on 190th Street NW near 230th Ave NW in rural Warren east of Polk Co 68: a Snowy Owl sitting in a sunflower field. I drove down 190th from the Audubon Center of the Red River Valley and spotted the male Northern Harrier that's been hanging around the Agassiz Valley impoundment, then an adult Bald Eagle and a couple of Rough-legged Hawks. I turned north on 230th and there he was: a little male Snowy almost pure white.
I stopped by my neighbor's house to thank her. When I left an hour later, the Snowy was sitting on a power pole, watching the sun drop behind clouds on the horizon. -- Heidi Hughes Agassiz Audubon Society 27391 190th Street NW Warren MN 56762 218.745.5663 http://AgassizAudubon.blogspot.com <http://agassizaudubon.blogspot.com/> http://OnLakeAgassiz.blogspot.com <http://onlakeagassiz.blogspot.com/> *Invest in our community Bluebird Nest Watch project* http://givemn.razoo.com/story/Bluebirds Visit the Audubon Center of the Red River Valley *and the Omdahl Arboretum!* ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
