Got a call this early afternoon that a Snowy Owl was on a telephone pole in Chilliwack across from City Hall. We were in town and stopped by at about 2:15 and saw it perched just south of City Hall off Young Road. Nice looking bird probably on its way north.

I thought there would be an excellent chance of a Snowy Owl seen in our area, I just didn't think it would be in April and near City Hall.

Remarkably, the bird was still there late this afternoon even though the crows had found it.  Thanks to my Uncle Dwight for sharing his finding. He called me but I was out of town today, but obviously word spread anyway! A great record for Chilliwack! |

Dave, good shot. We must have been typing at the same time. Thanks for the text (must have missed you by about 30 mins) and for your Uncle calling me.
