Here’s a much different take on the Snowy Owl. I usually post images in flight, but let’s face it; most of their time is spent sitting still and conserving energy. In Southern Ontario and Quebec, they like the view from the top of telephone poles, despite there being no tall perches in the tundra where they spend most of their time.
Male Snowy Owl Blast-off
Here’s another Male Snowy Owl blasting-off in high winds and blowing snow. We had to get down as low as possible to include the out of focus scrub along the fence line which slightly darkens the otherwise white background and helps make the fine snow visible.
