A Snowy Owl (an adult female, I think) basked in the sun at the
Nisqually NWR today. She sat on a stump about 300 yards north
and a smidgeon east of the observation platform overlooking the
salt flats.

With my scope set up, I had the pleasure of showing her to
a couple dozen passersby for about 45 minutes from 11:45 till
12:30.

--cheers, Jim Lyles
