Hey

There was a Snowy owl at Eastbound 401 and Keele Street this morning 5:45 am.
It was on the large blue sign in the grass area near the off ramp.

This is very close to the area 401 and 400 where Snowy has been spotted
adjacent Leons Wharehouse.

Downsview park is a very big park and is close to both Yorkdale and 401 & Keele.  My theory is that these sightings are of Snowy Owls based in Downsview park but competition with other birds of prey in that park (mainly Red Tailed Hawks) may at times push them out to more unusual spots such as Yorkdale.

I've got semi-regular sightings of Snowys along the 401.  I see one at 401 and Tomken, south side and also one at 401 and Renforth.  The Renforth one has been sitting on lamp posts along Eglinton some nights.  

I never see the birds going to work in the early afternoon; only on my way home after 10pm.
