Thank you to those who helped to add my Long-eared Owl to Explore. I'm still on such a natural high after coming across that little owl two evenings ago! 1. Long-eared Owl 1, 2. Do I see supper?, 3. Northern Saw-whet Owl Created with fd's Flickr Toys .

Thanks to those of you who kindly took a look at another of my Long-eared Owl photos that I took two evenings ago and that has made it into Explore today! 1. Long-eared Owl 3, 2. Do I see supper?, 3. Northern Saw-whet Owl, 4. American White Pelicans Created with fd's Flickr Toys .

These owls really do have a strange-looking face! They almost remind me of seals. Not the same as seeing one in the wild but to balance that out, this male is the proud father of three young ones this year, so I was able to see them, too, at the Calgary Zoo.

Thanks again, everyone, for letting me share my photos with you! 1. Long-eared Owl 1, 2. Brrrr...., 3. Do I see supper?, 4. Male Snowy Owl, 5. Great Grey Owl, 6. Northern Saw-whet Owl, 7. American White Pelicans Created with fd's Flickr Toys .

Can't wait for these beautiful Prairie Crocus flowers to push through the ground next spring - and winter isn't even quite here yet! I just don't want to think about what is in between. The highest position for this photo was #70 on 31st October 2006.

Thanks to everyone who took a look at my Prairie Crocus photo, made it a Favorite, or left a comment. I had such a surprise just now to see a splash of colour amongst an otherwise very brown and white selection of photos! Had almost the same effect as seeing that first crocus push through the soil in spring. Brightened my day! 1. First sign of spring, 2. Brrrr...., 3. Do I see supper?, 4. Male Snowy Owl, 5.

This is a cropped version of a previous photo, showing a beautiful Coyote immediately after it had eaten some kind of small rodent. The highest position for this photo was #27 on 30th October 2006.

Thanks to everyone who took a look at my Coyote photo, left a comment or made it a Favorite! Much appreciated! 1. That tasted so good, 2. First sign of spring, 3. Do I see supper?, 4. Male Snowy Owl, 5. Northern Saw-whet Owl, 6. American White Pelicans Created with fd's Flickr Toys .
