Snowy Owl!




 
 
I finally got a good long look at the snowy owl that's been hanging out around here.
 
 
I know the last one doesn't show its face, but I really like the way you can see feathers on it.
 
 
It hung out on the pole a good long while, and I was able to get fairly close, cross the street, pass to the far side, and recross the street.  I tried to walk a bit towards the other side, to see how it was facing, but it was a field and the snow was too deep for me to get far.  (I didn't have snow shoes on, but even with snow shoes, it would have been difficult.)
 
 
It was getting dark really fast, so I was really happy that I got a few good shots.  (I took about 50 shots.)  Winter isn't so bad today!
