Hey, Over the weekend I found two local Snowy Owls - one just east of Zorra Line, about 1 km north of Beachville, and a 2nd sitting on the ice in the west end of Pittock Lake. Although mostly frozen, Pittock had good numbers of (mostly) Herring Gulls fishing the open leads. In their midst were an adult Thayer's and 1st cycle Lesser Black-back. Pittock Lake can be reached by taking Pittock Park Road east from Hwy 59 about 1.5 km to the park gates.
