Yesterday afternoon several of us saw a couple of the airport snowies right around sunset.  One, which was mostly white with just a bit of tan barring, was on top of the FedEx building toward the end of Cargo Road.  It was there when I arrived, and stayed for a while.  Eventually, it groomed its talons, stretched its wings, and flew right over our head, lighting on an antenna across the road near a runway. 
   
  The other was very heavily barred with a white face and was located on a brick building on the west side of the UPS parking lot.  It showed the same behavior:  stretching a bit then flying across the road to alight on top of a streelight at the glycol facility well after sunset.
   
  Good birding, as Pastor Al says...
