You nailed it! Nice comp that makes one wonder what he sees. Snowflakes top it off perfectly.

Peter, awesome shot, love the snow flurry, complementary BG, pose,and the eyes searching for prey.  Best of all is to see the Owl in its element - fantastic job tracking your subject in this difficult situation - a splendid image!

Really sweet image and difficult to capture I'm sure. I wonder if it would benefit from a bit more contrast?? Regardless I wish it was my image.
