Funny you should mention this. One of my CBC participants reported seeing a Snowy Owl on Sunday, Nov 27 while deer hunting.HIs words: "It was in the area between Baker Peak and Lost Pond in
Mt Tabor (E of Danby off Long Trail). It flew through the tree tops ahead of
me, but I did get a good view of it." I was waiting for more specific info before posting as I thought it really early.... and who could be in need of food in the 'south' at this point????
