You're one up on me Peter, I've never even seen one. Hopefully you can clone those arrows out.

Nice shot.

You see, a part of the problem is that I am cursed by a bunch of disorganized amateurs I shoot with. You'd think that anyone would remember to bring along some mice, a squirl or two, a rodent slingshot, an industrial air siren, petards and similar neccessary accessories of serious owl photography ? Of course not.

Even a fellow who is our designated bird flusher (no fence has ever stopped him) failed to show up......probably slept in.

The only thing we had was an IPhone with some wildlife calls on it. Alas, playing the sqirl-in-distress call had no effect on the owl whatsoever.

There you have it, damn amateurs.

Peter, you crack me up....did I mention that before Probably. But it's worth repeating.

Now where did you find this young guy - or gal?

Thank you, Henrik.
The owl was sitting in a farmer's field in GTA.

I don't know, perhaps I should stop struggling to photograph real birds, and just stick to pijun shooting instead.

Seeing a snowy owl at all would make my day -- as you say, it's a start.

Great shot Peter!
Now it appears everyone was shy so I'll just say it, There comes a time when you have to use a little longer lens than that 24mm you so love.
