Friedhoffer" Subject: Snowy Owl in Frederick County MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Saw the Snowy Owl this afternoon about 3:15 PM on Oland road along with about 20 other birders, it just sat a fence post posing. We also saw a Red Tailed Hawk sitting on a post in the field, and a Kestrel sitting on stubble all on Oland road. Some of the best views of these birds in a stationary position that I have ever had. Also saw hundreds of Horned Larks on New Design Road just north of Oland, and a few Snow Bunting. Someone said they saw Lapland Long Spurs but we did not see them. Along with my back yard Peregrine, it was a wonderful day Jeff Friedhoffer Columbia ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
