I waited for this snowy for 2 hours to fly off a utility pole and it flew toward me grabbing a clump of grass without prey. I did not trigger this flight-natural behavior! I assume the dirty face from hunting on a snowless landscape.

Very nice approach shot, Jeff. Great sense of concentration in those penetrating eyes.

I found them not cooperative at all. Spent an entire day with them and got nothing but spruce treetop looks.
