This email describes how to use eBird to query recent sightings for a specific site and/or species. The quickest way to learn the most up-to-date status of Snowy Owl sightings is to check eBird submissions. The reason is that birders can submit these while they are in the field, as opposed to

I was at the airport late on NewYears Day to look for the owls. I did get to see one very well on the Fed Ex building. Unfortunately I learned a harsh lesson about myself and a large group of other birders. When I first got into the are there were a few cars and people out looking at what was

Thanks, Dan Ahlman, for motivating me to get out of the house to see the Snowy Owl. No sooner had I turned onto "Cargo Road" that I looked up and saw the Snowy soaring fairly low over the road!! I pulled over and watched it with my binocs for 2-3 minutes until it flew to the north and out of
