The owl has moved a bit farther north this morning - it was in a tree on
the north side of Folwell Ave at about 8:40 with about 10 crows harassing
it. To get to Folwell, turn south on Cleveland from Larpenteur, then west
on Hoyt (the first right turn), then right immediately onto Folwell.
Folwell bends around and turns into an east-west street. The bird is about
3 blocks farther west, at Folwell and Vincent.
