Wanted to get one more look at the snowy's and made the trip on Tuesday. It was a beautiful, sunny but blustery day.

I counted at least six owls. There weren't many folks there between 9AM and Noon. Around noon several small groups began showing up.

Most folks were observing and photographing from a respectful distance but I was surprised to see a dog walker allow their unleashed animal to approach and cause an owl to take flight. I managed to get a couple of flight shots resulting from that intrusion.

A couple of representative image: http://flic.kr/p/borf7y or http://flic.kr/p/bBmku8

Or if you are interested in the complete irruption album containing shots from early November, mid December and most recently, March 6th:
