Hi Tweets

The Snowy Owl mentioned in yesterday's post was still perched regally on
the north side of the Christian Scientist church on Capitol Hill yesterday
at 4 pm. The building occupies the block between 15th and 16th and Denny
(south of Group Health Hospital). Workers at GH have been tracking its
daily forays for a couple of weeks and say it is generally there most of
the afternoon. It's a spectacular bird--I think probably a female since
it is large and has considerable barring (though I'm no expert on this
since this was a life bird for me!). It was perched on top of one of the
column-like structures of the building. Well worth checking out. jm
