I came across two Snowy Owls in Pope county this afternoon.  The first was a very lightly barred individual on a power pole along Hwy 28 0.5 miles east of where CR 33 goes north in NE Pope County.  This is two miles south of where Ron Erpelding, Herb Dingmann, and others have reported snowies in the last few weeks so it might be one of those birds.


The second bird was on the south edge of the Glenwood Municipal airport.  I had a distant view of it perched on a power pole south of the airport from CR 22 just before it joined Hwy 28.
