Snowy owls not among us

March

Were you hoping for the appearance of another snowy owl in Rockland County, like the one that showed up last year?

If so, look to the Rockland Aububon Society’s latest newsletter for an explanation of your disappointment. Something about “very poor site fidelity.” Might be a sequel for John Cusack . . .

Anyway, the photos by TJN photographer Vincent DiSalvio show last winter’s visitor over in Piermont.

Here’s a story from December about some snowy owls given to the Green Chimneys School in Patterson and video, too.

(Note: If you have trouble opening the newsletter or the story from December, right click on those links and choose open in a new window. Both are .pdf files)
