Snowy Owl in snow covered tree

Christopher Dodds February 9, 2024

Another Snowy Owl from a recent private owl workshop. As was the case with the last Snowy Owl that I posted HERE, I had my Sony a9III set up and ready to test the pre-capture and was ready for blast-off, but it simply didn’t happen while we were there waiting, and we left it where we found it as it got dark. So happy that there are a few owls finally moving into their winter territory!

Here is a Snowy Owl from a recent private Snowy Owl Photo Tour. Snowy Owls and snow have been in short supply this winter in southeast Canada, and this beauty showed up more than two months late!

I used the new Sony a9 III paired with my Sony 200-600mm zoom lens. Although we were close and using the van as a blind, I never got to photograph it blasting off as planned because it sat there until dark. It looks somewhat alert after being dive-bombed by a raven.

Snowy Owls: They're back!

One of three frames I made during my brief encounter with this beauty while cruising the backroads looking for ….. owls :) Only two spots are left for my winter Snowy Owl Workshops in January.
