This morning on my way to work I followed up on Bob Ekblad's report of a Meeker Co. Snowy. I found the owl on the Kandi-Meeker line about 0.5 miles north of 310th St (Meeker)/75th Ave NE(Kandiyohi). This was a heavily barred owl that I have never seen before in Kandiyohi or Meeker Counties -it looked black with a white face. The Snowy moved around a lot spending time on power poles on the Kandiyohi side, briefly on a fence post on the Meeker side and finally where it remained perched on the ground on the Kandiyohi side. Look for a fence line that runs east/west about 0.5 miles north of 310th. The owl is about 0.5 miles west of the road but sticks out easily because it's so dark. This fence line is just to the north of a drainage ditch that crosses the Kandi-Meeker line.
