Re: [cobirds] Re: Snowy Owl/Weld

A bit of a slow reply, but I also checked CR 104 between 73 and 57 on Monday the 21st with no sign of the Snowy.. I was there late afternoon between 330 and 5. As Dave says it was very cold and very windy. I was lucky to find my first Lapland Longspur amongst hundreds of Horned Larks along CR 106 west of 77 though. 

Thanks,

For what it's worth, a friend of mine and I looked for it late afternoon on 2/21.  Very windy and cold.  Did not see it.  Looked all along both sides of 104 between 73 and 69.  Because of the conditions, we suspected if still present, the bird was in a low spot, not sitting up on fence or hill.  I understand others looked for it earlier in the day, also, to no avail.

Hi Gary,

I think I was the last to see it on 2/20. I watched it for about 90 minutes until I couldn't see it due to lack of light. I haven't seen any further reports. It was 1/2 mile north of CR 104 north of my eBird checklist location.

Good luck if you go searching.

Adrian Lakin,

Hi all

Anyone see the Snowy Owl after the 2/20 sightings? Have not had a chance to go look for it yet.

Thanks, Gary Lefko, Nunn
