Whoever re-finds the Snowy Owl, please call me607-229-2158or,send a message tothe revived CayugaRBA text message rare bird alert if you are on it (contact me for details how to join - free easy - if you are interested), as well as posting promptly to this listserv, as I intend to do if I find it.I'll be out looking for it today, and I suspect others will as well. I know there was as at least one additional party (I was almost in it) out looking for the Short-eared Owls yesterday, but haven't heard if they had any luck. I assume they did not see the Snowy Owl.--Dave NutterOn Jan 21, 2012, at 11:48 PM, Marty Schlabach m...@cornell.edu wrote:
Mary Jean and I drove along Hall Rd and Wycoff Rd this evening about 4:30pm hoping to get another look at the short-eared owls that she saw yesterday. We were disappointed that we did not see them, though
we may have been a bit early. We were, though, treated to a SNOWY OWL on Wycoff Rd, near Co Rd 129. The owl was perched at the top of a rather tall Norway spruce in a cluster of Norway spruce trees in the farmstead yard at the south east corner of the Wycoff
and Co Rd 129 intersection. We spotted it from a distance and we approached it slowly in our car and it did not fly even when we were just below it parked in front of the house. We were on our way to Geneva so were not able to stay longer, but it remained
in that tree while we were there. Hopefully it will be there tomorrow as well.
Best,
Marty Mary Jean
