The Boss and I took a short trip to Pinkney's Point late this afternoon.
Weather was pretty clear.
Folk familiar with Pinkney' Point will know that it is the southeastern
extreme of the Chebogue River catchment and is isolated from the mainland by
an enormous salt marsh. About 2/3 of the distance towards Pinkney's Point,
I noticed a familiar-looking large-bird-sized big-headed, white
birdy-looking thing, in the marsh about 200 feet from the road. There were
cars coming, so we proceeded to the Point, turned around, and returned to
get a better look with binoculars. The lump shifted as we were looking at
it. This was about 4:30 P.M., and viewing conditions were good.
Snowy owl. Couldn't have been anything else.
