I just got a report from Jordan Gunn at the location.

The Snowy Owl was picked up by a representative of Sarvey Wildlife Care
Center.

Jordan questioned the guy (named Will) and he said it was their policy if
the bird remained in the same location for 12 hours to pick them up. Will
said the bird was "greatly emaciated".

Snowy Owl is still in place (on the gull on the ground by the blue recycling
bin at 129 11th Ave - SW corner of E John St and 11th Ave E) at 0950 this
morning.

Slightly bemused by attention (in that Snowy Owl manner). Even quite
tolerant of non-birders getting a bit too close for a photo (where are those
"honking big lenses" when you need them :-)

Went there about 7:20 and it had captured a pigeon. It wasn't eating it but
sitting on top watching people. Group of 5-10 folks out looking at it.
Beautiful!
