Bill,
This is the closest that a snowy owl has been to North Carolina; so, I’m very
interested. Unfortunately, I can’t rush down there Wednesday morning. Please
keep us posted. Let’s see if this bird is going to stay there for the winter or
move one.
As for GABO-L, how does a person join?
Thanks,

Tennessee birders might be interested in this post on GABO-L.
There is a Snowy Owl on Sea Island. It was apparently first seen 3 days ago by
SI staff, but was positively identified today.
It appears to either be a young male or adult female - as it shows moderate
black patterning. It was perched on a rooftop of the private condominiums just
north of the south Jetty.
Kristen Morris, the Sea Island naturalist has generously offered to take
birders to see the owl (presuming it stays around). She is planning an 8AM
trip tomorrow (Wednesday). Since there is limited space, please call her if
you want to go. Her number is (912) 506-1641.
She is also available in the afternoon to take more people out.
