Some brief information from yesterday on a few owls that I don't think has been posted on mou-net….
- The continuing N Hawk Owl on Martin Rd in Duluth was relocated, ranging in the open area between 0.8 and 1.1 mile W of Jean Duluth Rd. This owl's location is sometimes given as only a quarter mile W of Jean Duluth, which is heavily wooded on both sides of Martin Rd (not typical hawk owl habitat). - Two Snowy Owl were present in late afternoon in Superior WI: one along Tower Ave just W of the municipal airport (as others have posted); and another along 28th St near the RR crossing just E of the high school and W of Hill Ave (this owl has apparently been present for several weeks, but I don't think it has been reported on mou-net). We did not check the Snowy Owl site by the Calumet refinery along Hill Ave, because there is no shoulder along this road and maybe only one place to park at a gate (which may attract the attention of a no-nonsense security guard). As far as I know, there have been no Snowy Owls reported in MN in the Duluth-Two Harbors area since December. - And what may be a new Great Gray Owl was seen by Bob Russell and others along Lake County Rd 2, 9.8 mile N of Two Harbors (presumably measured from Hwy 61).
