At the MSP airport a Snowy Owl continues. Likely moves around a bit and can be far from the road, but best chance at a sighting is from the new aircraft observation parking lot at the end of Cargo Road. This morning the owl was on a small red and white checkered building to the NW of the lot. A flock of Snow Buntings was also present and flying around near that area. Not the only snowy owl in the county in the past 2 weeks, but certainly seems to be the most reliable.
On a separate note, the Washington County Varied Thrush at Oakland Cemetery has found a friend. I believe this was first noted by Ian Hunter yesterday. The two Varied Thrushes have been seen sharing the single crabapple tree, but retreat to other areas on and off the cemetery occasionally. - Justin Watts Hennepin County ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
