My grandmother and I took a trip up to Buena Vista today in hopes of finding the Gyr. We got there at 10:30 and immediately saw four cars pulled over and there was the Snowy Owl perched on a pine tree of of W. My grandma hasn't seen one in fourteen years and was ecstatic. We clicked a few pics and headed out. After 8 hours of searching we only found the falconer and his captive Gyr. Neat to see, but not what we were hoping for. No prairie chickens found although we heard a report of 69 birds of of Townline. All together a good trip, but we missed the Gyr.
