Sunday PM Update: Snowy Owl Maury County Spring Hill, TN We observed the owl on the ground in a field on Highway 31 just south of the 396 intersection about 3 PM CST. It was located well back from the highway near the Saturn property. Other birders told us it had been there for some time and let us view it up close through their scopes. Thanks, Patrick and Doug. At 4 PM, the owl took flight toward the 396 intersection and disappeared over the hill toward the Cracker Barrel restaurant. What a majestic bird'. We drove around but did not find it again today. The sighting was well worth the trip.
