Tuesday afternoon, Judy Chucker and I found a Snowy Owl easily visible from the Hogback Ridge trail, just east of the Hwy 77 bridge.
The well-barred female owl moved to a grassy spot a bit further east of Hwy 77 and closer to the marshy island. A female Northern Harrier buzzed the owl but she held her ground. She was sitting in a clump of grasses on the ice when we left at 3:30pm -- Claudia Egelhoff West Saint Paul, MN 55118 ---- General information and guidelines for posting: https://moumn.org/listservice.html Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html During the pandemic, the MOU encourages you to stay safe, practice social distancing, and continue to bird responsibly.
