This snowy owl perches atop a telephone pole on Mahoning Avenue near Raccoon Road in Austintown. A large migration of the owl species has migrated south from the Arctic this year. Snowy owls also have been spotted at Mosquito Lake in Bazetta. Wildlife leaders urge the public to keep their distance from the owls.
