p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Shy Snowy Owl


This winter was very hard to find Snowy Owls in Long Island compared to last year.

I visited the beach 6-7 times with out success but two weeks ago i had the chance to photograph a very shy Snowy Owl.

I think it will be my last chance to photograph one this year.

#6 is the best here IMO. Looks like a nice male!
You could always go to the arctic and shoot them on their nesting grounds!!!!!

Glad you got to see one Marcelo...I only made a single visit and didn't get to see one...maybe next year. Nice shots despite the shy nature.

It might be safe to say we all(wildlife photographers) strive to get a sharp flying pic, but that #8 pic does it for me. The contrast and composition of the weeds are like a natural frame. I'd have that one framed :-) Awesome photos!

Thank you Eric, this year was hard to find Snowy Owls in Long island but I heard so many people photographed it in NJ.
