[TN-Bird] Snowy Owl Still Around

Responding to a few questions regarding Snowy Owl in Spring Hill at the GM
plant that builds the Chevrolet Traverse.  Plant folks have begun to call
him "Chevy".
Bird is being seen daily still.  I work at plant and check around for him
nearly every day.  In the mornings at dawn and usually up until around 8:30
he perches on a light pole on not visible from Hwy 31.  I have a few decent
photos from him on his light pole that can be seen at

Thursday he was about 75 yards off of the white fence just as the
interchange heading to Columbia merges to Hwy 31.  He was there most of the
day and a few lucky viewers got a pretty decent close up.  At the end of the
day he moved to an "island" on the interchange.  The island is on the west
side of Hwy 31 and takes south bound Hwy 31 drivers to Hwy 396 (Saturn
Parkway).  I watched him fly from the island to one of the high line power
lines at dark last night.

Today after 3 pm he was dead straight ahead of the "fence gate" at the very
top of the hill.  There were a few spectators at the fence.
