Hi all, I just received a report and photo of a Snowy Owl from "near the Indiana/Ohio line, just west of Defiance". I received the report from a secondhand source, and unfortunately no more explicit directions were included. I have fired off an email to attempt to get more details, and if/when I do, I'll post them here ASAP. As everyone probably knows, this is shaking out to be a good winter for southbound Snow Owls, and they could appear about anywhere, especially in the northern one-third of the state. I'll hope to report back with additional details on this owl.
