Damn, unfortunately there are no ebird choices for ssp of GHOW other than
magellanic, so my info was solely of hawk watchers and owl banders. I also
don’t know the sites to look up records from the early 1900’s. Thanks for
all the info everyone!

there are at least two extant specimens of *B.v. wapacuthu* from
massachusetts, and apparently there was quite a "flight" of these in
1917-19 (Bull 1964; Veit and Petersen 1993))

I’ll be happy to examine and photograph these specimens if you think it would
be helpful.

Hi Larry and all,
That is certainly a striking looking owl and a candidate for B. v. subarcticus
(=wapacuthu in much 20th Century literature).
Salzman (1998, in "Bull's Birds of New York State") cites three specimens of
Subarctic Great Horned Owl in NYS, from Erie, Bronx, and Suffolk Counties,
