Snowy Owl in Shippensburg




On my way home from my annual trip to the Harrisburg Auto Show I got a call. "The Owl is out in the field". Two weeks ago I heard about the rare visit to the area by a Snowy Owl. I was told, "Duncan Road and Mud Level Road". That is an intersection of open fields. I saw others driving and looking so I don't think I missed him. Yesterday there were half a dozen cars parked on Mud Level Road just east of Duncan Road and I assumed that the big white dot out in the field is why. The top two pictures I cropped in a lot and a little. The last picture is the best I could do with my 300mm zoom, handheld. Many moons ago there was a snowy owl living in the hanger I worked in out in Utah, so this is my second sighting.
