About a week ago, a Snowy Owl was reported at the local airport — and then was unreported for several days in spite of many people looking. Then, Christmas Eve morning, as I was readying for a family visit, I heard that friends had seen it the previous day.The airport was on my route so I stopped, looked without success, and then, with the help of my friend John, who is the facility manager, I found the white adult owl perched on a snowbank in the middle of the field.
I returned from my trip today and my spouse and I went up and found the bird again, a little further away, but still a wonderful treat. It has been a great holiday present for dozens of Central Vermont birders.
