Unsuccessful Search for the Arapahoe Snowy Owl

January 21, 2018

Richard Stevens:

Major snowstorm today, few birders ventured out into the wild.  Temperatures barely reached 27 degrees.  Winds were 12-13 mph with gusts to 23 mph.  Aurora Reservoir received 3+ inches of snow.

If not for attempting to relocate the Snowy Owl near the Paint Ball range off Jewell Road, I would not have gone outside.

The Snowy Owl was not found during my two hour search before I headed for the safety and warmth of home.
