The Snowy Owl season is winding down, they have already left or are on the move.
I drove by one of my favorite spots, the Marina that is, but decided to go to an other one instead.
Then when I went there later and one guy showed me a picture of a Snowy taken there from fifteen feet, right at the Marina. It made me sick.
Thanks for looking.

A really nice Snowy Owl, Karl. Excellent eye contact and the natural prey is a bonus.

Great winter scene and good to see that the owl had a good meal.

The ones with cell phones trying to get a shot close drive me crazy. Nice shot by the way.
