I saw Deanne's posting just before going to the airport for a FedEx 
drop-off. So decided to take a look around...

Located the snowy owl at 4:00 pm along the new runway, perched near the 
perimeter fence on some posts.

Directions: Go to the United/Cont'l/AA Cargo/Freight buildings. The 
address of these buildings are 7550 22rd Ave S and 7550 23rd Ave S.
At the end of their driveway is a gravel lot with several trailers and 
trucks labeled Premier Electrical.
Walk into this lot, northward, to the far end (you'll see my tracks 
approaching the fence (to within 6 feet  :-)
Look northward, toward the flashing X of the runway. There will be a 
small hut in this line of sight.
In front of the hut are a cluster of wooden posts. The owl was sitting 
on these posts.

Don't know if it was a male or female. Not experienced enough with 
snowy owls!

Sorry I couldn't post before dark, but just returned to my computer.

  I was returning home from work on 494 going west as a passenger in a 
vehicle traveling 50 mph and saw a snowy owl fly up just east of the 
new runway.
