Backyard bird watching

[gone fishin]

Banner year for migrating birds - there are 7 reported snow owls on Plum Island - Parker River Reserve. One has taken residence fairly close to the PI Turnpike. They are trapping them at logan and trying to relocate them to the reserve. The one I was watching stands about 3 feet tall and is majestic. The rangers on the reserve are asking that people do not try and approach the birds. ( Cannot blame them, there is an army of birders with million dollar scopes looking for position).

i'd love to have one down in my neck of the woods
and that would be a hoot.
