7:07AM....saw it as well. Almost pure white, which confirms what I reported a few nights earlier in the same area.

Hi all, I was just contacted by the owner of the Snowy Owl, it is an escapee not a wild bird. The gentleman was doing a show in the area and the bird broke the leash. UN-TICK ;-) If anyone spots the bird again, Sam would love to know, please let me know privately and I will let him know where you saw the bird last.
