Saw a distinctly female Snowy Owl today, Saturday, Jan. 14, 2 p.m., at the west end of the FedEx parking lot. She was on the ground between the large snow heap and the fence, then flew up to a fence post. Was there half an hour later when I went back. Her behavior was that of just looking around, sometimes up at the sky; did a little preening on her belly. Sharon K. Mpls
