I did it ... I finally did it!
Yesterday, I finally found a Great Horned Owl sitting in an old, far-away barn, on our way to spend the day botanizing at Dry Island Buffalo Jump Provincial Park. One or two of you might just remember that I have always wanted to find an owl sitting in a window frame like this - only, of course, I pictured it taken on a lovely sunny day and a little closer or more accessible : ) However, I was so, so thrilled when we passed this delapidated barn and as we were passing I thought I spotted a pale coloured "something" sitting there. Friend and driver, Sandy, slowed down and turned around - which meant that friends in the car behind, who must have wondered what we were doing, also had to turn around. Thanks everyone, for patiently waiting while I grabbed two or three photos! The Owl only sat there briefly, and then flew off with several Starlings (?) in hot pursuit! As you can see by the sky, the weather was already really crummy (and only got worse as the day went on). Thankfully, some colour was added by the surrounding Canola field. Well, I was already on a great, natural high from our day at Plateau Mountain two days earlier - but seeing this owl sure topped up that feeling! Ha, I hope you find my excitement over such a comparatively small thing, amusing!
