My husband and I went to try for the Snowy Owl this morning and had no luck, but we talked to three employees of the plant and they said it had been seen yesterday. They also said it normally perches on light poles in the plant area off-limits to visitors in the mornings then moves to the fields in the afternoons where it's visible from the turn-out sort of across from Rippavilla Plantation. Too bad no one could see it for the GBBC.
