I was looking for the owl and stopped at the UPS building.  A very
cordial security guard told me that their parking lot was "private" and
off-limits to birders.  He asked me to spread the word on-line.

Subject: [mnbird] MSP Airport Snowy Owl

=20

At 3:15 today the MSP airport Snowy Owl was about 150 yards due east
from the Delta Airlines Cargo facility at the southern end of the
airport.  This is just west of where 24th Avenue turns west when coming
from 494 (the top of the owl's head was visible from 24th, so I pulled
into the cargo facility).  This heavily-barred owl was perched on the
ground next to an orange traffic cone.
