Subject: GG Owl near Pullman, WA WAS seen this morning
Date: Feb 7 12:54:51 2000
From: Charles Swift - charless at moscow.com


Actually I was with the WSU entourage but apparently left before the bird
was located! This would have been at the farmstead which is on Airport Rd.
a bit east of the original location but I'm not sure if we will have
general permission for access to this property. Hopefully the bird may be
visible from the road if is hunting but if anybody does want to look at the
second location please stop and ask permission at the farm buildings. Wes
Clemonts, whose property the owl was hunting around yesterday has given
permission to birders to come in and look for it. His property is at 1902
Orville Boyd Rd.

Thanks, Charles.

(Deb or Dick - please send an update if both of us are wrong!!)
