Yesterday afternoon when school was let out, a student found a dead Boreal Owl 
in the Holdingford Elementary School parking lot, near a row of White Spruce 
trees. My suspicion is that it roosted there during the recent weather. They 
brought it to me this morning for ID. I called the conservation officer, 
meanwhile, I am using it today in 7th grade LifeSci as a longer teachable 
moment about current events concerning natural histories of MN and irruptive 
species.  mjb
