Always a thrill
A beautiful setting
Just for my records
Is it a Snowy? ... no, it isn't ... yes, it is!
Some white patches have eyes : )
The day before Christmas
My Christmas present to my daughter : )
White against blue
So beautiful
On the way to pure whiteness
The challenge of photographing Snowy Owls
Touched by the sun
Making sure we go the right way
On a cold and windy day

Beware!
So far away, but better than nothing
The only one
On a bitterly cold, hoar frosty day

Better than nothing - this is NOT my main photo!
Snowy Owl
Worthy of another look
Avian perfection
A reward for facing my fears : )
In your dreams
With a wink and a smile
Yesterday's treat : )
One of 12 - and a wooden pole for a change : )
Beauty on the power pole
Not one wire, but two ... sigh
Beautiful, but blurry
Curiosity from up high
Always a happy sight
Such a treat
Got my eyes on you
Afternoon nap
Take-off
A welcome visitor
Sunlit, distant beauty
Breathtaking beauty
What a treat : )
Snowy Owl
Growing up
White on blue
Curiosity
He made our day!

Hiding out
Beside the vine
One-eyed beauty
Magnificent one

The long and the short of it : )
Lol, this is certainly a different perch from the more usual power pole! Not sure if it's better, or not, but it definitely makes a change : ) Had a great day yesterday with friends Cathy and Terry, driving the backroads SE of the city, hoping to see an owl or two. My title for this photo came from Terry's description of the day we had - it started off with a Long-eared Owl and ended with a Short-eared Owl! In total, we saw 5 Snowy Owls including this handsome male, 4 Great Horned Owls, 1 Long-eared Owl and 1 Short-eared Owl. Plus a few other species, including a Northern Shrike, many Grey Partridges (all of which flew before we could take photos, other than a couple of very distant ones), Horned Larks, Ravens/Crows, owls in barn windows, a beautiful Gyrfalcon and a colourful sunrise. Not a bad day, I think you'll agree : ) The only thing we didn't see, except briefly, was the sun, so we had low light all day, unfortunately! It was so unbearably cold all day, windchill temperature was -30C. A few seconds out of the car and fingers were so painful. despite wearing gloves. Difficult to hold the camera steady when one is shivering, ha.
