Wow- terrific shot with that claw in motion, ruffled feathers and a cool tree. Very determined-looking owl!

Another excellent Owl image, from 2025 Peter. ( Just had our third blizzard in one week, here in Ontario, so very bad conditions here, as well in your region of Quebec).

Peter, many of your images have this same kind of colour cast to them, but in this one it really works well. It looks like a painting with excellent details. I would love to just see a Boreal Owl someday.
