Another Bubo species to KUO:

there sits one atop the tall Lindhal (sp?) home sign, on the west side of
I-5, just south of Fife.

About 15 years ago, while traveling north on I-5, I spotted this bird and
made my wife take the next exit (Fife) and turn around back south to the
next exit. We drove right to the base of the sign. Now everytime we are
traveling from Tacoma to Seattle, my wife always makes a comment like:
"should we stop again to see the owl" or something similar.........it has
become a tradition........
