An itinerant snowy owl was found in the area, a long way from it’s normal habitat and travel route. Calling it a gender-neutral “Tundra” while rehabbing it locally, a DNA test found she was actually a he. This cartoon takes off on that finding and also mentions the local white squirrels for good measure.

 

UPDATE 12/13/2016: Sorry to report that Tundra the snow owl has passed away.
