After Aaron Lang and I discovered this weekend that birding in Iowa is not 
entirely painful (Thayer's and Glaucous Gulls, Eurasian Tree Sparrow, 
Long-Eared Owl, Long-tailed Duck), we had a little time to kill before 
sunset, and decided to get lost in Fillmore and Mower counties.

The Snowy Owl was found 5 miles west and 1 mile south of Ostrander, along 
170th St, just east of 750th ave.  It was on the south side of the road, 
then flushed about a mile west to the north side of the road.
