This is Kas Dumroese with the northern Idaho / eastern Washington /
northeastern Oregon bird hotline.

An OLDSQUAW is residing at Hat Rock State Park along US 730 about 8
miles east of Umatilla, Umatilla Co., Oregon according to Craig Corder
and Judy Stevens who saw the bird on February 7. OR DeLorme p. 85,
A-8.

If you're still looking for SNOWY OWLS, try Moses Lake, Grant Co.,
Washington. Take I_90 exit 179 and go north past the mini-mart etc.
0.2 mile, then turn right (east) and go 1 mile to road L NE. Turn
left (north) onto L NE and start looking on both sides of the road for
the next two miles. The vicinity near Nelson Road seems best. Take
Nelson east 0.5 mile for more opportunities for owls. WA DeLorme 69,
CD-6.5.

If you have any questions about the sightings, give me a call at
208/883-0943.

Good birding.
