It was a nice day for a drive to Buena Vista seeking the Snowy Owl seen in the
area. We found hundreds of Sandhill Cranes in the fields, three Bald Eagles
and numerous Red-tailed Hawks. Midmorning we found the Snowy Owl at the corner
of County W and County D (Alpine Rd). Over a half hour it was seen in a tree,
on a sign, in the middle of the road, and finally it perched on an irrigation
unit well out in a field east of this corner.. This bird does not allow close
approach in a car or on foot easily. Plan on looking at this one with a scope
at a good distance.
