Observation details
Howard County's third definite record ever and first since 1960! An immature female. Howard birders heard of a possible "white owl" in the Lisbon area a day or two earlier but details were very shaky and actual location wasn't known. Through Wes Earp's relationship with the property owner, he was able to get on the property and search himself. I had driven all around western Howard County this morning looking in vain, when I got word that Wes had it on private property about a mile south of Lisbon off of MD 94 and was able to arrange for very brief access. It's too bad the bird was not visible from public property or roads.
