The Snowy Owl was found on the roadside shoulder. Photos were taken, and the owl was studied. Though alert, able to hop and extend both wings, the bird did not seem capable of flight. A raptor rehabilitator was summoned, then met us at the site. After a short chase, the bird was collected for forwarding to a veterinarian and S.O.A.R. With the bird in hand, and in evidence in the 3rd photo, we could see ruffled feathers around the bird's left eye and some cloudiness on the cornea. Hopefully, a full recovery is ahead.
