I saw on Facebook that the snowy owl has been hanging out all week at the outlet mall. I live nearby, so I just went over to see if I could see him. I did! He was on the ground, eating something, in the open space by the thruway between the Rockport and Timberland stores. After a while he flew up to pole # 6 which is by some public restrooms and garbage dumpsters behind the Old Navy store. He hunkered down there. I could see his head, but probably I wouldn't have seen him if I hadn't known he was there. Then he flew again and landed on the Waterloo Premium Outlets sign. All right in the same vicinity. At that point, unfortunately I had to leave. But he's definitely there! Very exciting for me. My first snowy owl.
