So, we had a tornado touch down late yesterday in parts of Ottawa.  Power went out briefly where I live but others were not so fortunate.  

Particularly in an area called Dunrobin out in the west end.  The tornado touched down for about 8 seconds at that location but long enough to take out a small strip mall, one that I visit from time to time, stopping in for some food after photographing in the area. 

Later in the evening I went to check on the snowy owl I had been watching since early August.  Despite lightning flashing in the distance, there he was perched high up drying itself for a night of activity. I left it after seeing it was OK but went back today.  

Canon 500 f4 III and 1.4x.  Gitzo.  Thanks for looking.

What a beauty. I love the orange warm glow. Nice narrative with the picture.

Hilarious look, I really like the dark background, adds drama to the image.

The warm sidelight is gorgeous, and the open beak is refreshingly different.
