Fellow birders:
I was so appalled& angered by the bad, stupid & dangerous behavior of
birders along Martin Rd. last yr. that I deliberately left locality
information out of my post yesterday. By today, the owl could be most
anywhere but for those of you who know about the airport, Lott Farms &
surrounding areas south of Seneca Falls, the snowy was along Martin Rd.
on a post, looking all the world like a light globe in the setting
sun. Becky got pictures. Whether someone else saw the owl & posted it
to E-bird, I don't know because I don't "do" E-bird.
If someone wants to notify Joe Brin about the sighting or add it to the
FOY record, please do. Becky & I were just thrilled to be able to see
the owl so clearly in the very short time we had to swing down that way.
Where it might have had the magic marker markings put on top of the
head is a mystery but last yr. someone was trapping Snowies & marking
them so they weren't being captured & re-tallied.
