This morning I took a pre-dawn trip to Hutchinson and viewed the NHOW right
at first light. I watched it until 8:15. It was loyal to the poles directly
east of the home about 0.5 miles south of the intersection of 230th and Co.
Rd. 12. It actively moved around and hunted, even nabbing something on the
shoulder in my headlights and then later going after birds at a feeder at the
aforementioned house. Yesterday I saw the Atwater Snowy Owl on the exact
same pole it was first discovered by my principal 9 days ago - on Kandiyohi
Co. Rd. 10 about a mile west of Co. Rd. 2 and just before 180th St, last pole
on the line. This bird has been seen on these poles, on an irrigator and on
the ground in the section to the northwest of the Co. Rd. 2/10 intersection
and on a pole on 105th Ave to the east of that intersection. A wildlife
artist who'd previously contacted me about where to search for a Snowy was on
the scene before me getting some good pictures of her lifer Snowy. All
Grove City reports have dried up. eBird Checklist for Northern Hawk Owl with
