The Montgomery Bird Club trip today led by Jim Green enjoyed a frigid 
but very successful day.  We found both the Tufted Duck and  the 
Barrow's Goldeneye in Cambridge this morning.  We didn't find the 
Eurasian Widgeon this morning.  And we also had no success then with 
the Oxford Snowy Owl.

But mid-afternoon, Chris Wright and I want back to Oxford, and there 
was the owl!  It was roosting next to a metal rooftop flue, probably 
where others have reported it today.  We didn't catch the name of the 
street, but we turned off the main road right after passing the 
community center, and spotted it on one the houses to our right.
