Sorry about that, but, to be fair, I did post it on April 1st (and not on here)...

Yes, there was a snowy owl. I was there to lead an owl prowl and someone showed up with real owls, including the snowy. Good thing, too, as the program started at 7 and it was light through much of it. I also didn't have after hours access to do any scouting so I wasn't well prepared. And the owls weren't very cooperative...
