p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · My first try at Snowy Owls


After being inspired by all the great snowy owl threads and armed with some great info from Morris, I decided to head to the beach to look for one and I was lucky enough to find this guy with his dinner. He was spooked by some beach goers a few times but I was able to find him again. The sun stayed hidden for most of the time but it did come out for a few brief moments and made for some really nice lighting.

Thanks guys. I got really lucky with this guy. I went with a buddy and as soon as we started walking towards the water, we saw a group of photographers and bird watchers gathered around so we knew they had spotted something, so we just made our way towards them and there he was.

I think it wanted to make sure we knew that the critter he's eating was HIS dinner.

Thanks Larry. I'm not sure, maybe a rabbit or some sort of rodent. There wasn't too much of it left to identify.

Very cool!

Love the look of surprise in #6

And the bars in #7 make him look like he has horns!

Awesome, wish I had some around here!

Holy crap! These are some of the best Snowy expressions I've seen. Amazingly captured. Puts a smile on my face. 2, 6, 7, and 8 are truly special and award-winning type images. Unreal! -Mike
