There is currently a Snowy Owl at Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn. KEEP IN MIND THAT THE FIELDS ARE OFF LIMITS TO PEOPLE.
NPS Police do patrol the area just about constantly. If you see anyone harassing the Owl while you are here, please tell one of them. This is a unique opportunity for people who have no vehicular access to view one of these gorgeous animals, so if you come please be considerate to both the bird and to the people who have yet to see it. Good Birding, Doug Gochfeld.
