Hello everyone. Haven`t posted anything in quite a while. Been mostly lurking.
Got lucky enough to find a very friendly Snowy owl.

Awesome Troy. Now these are some serious shots of a SOIF. I love how you handled the whites in this bright yet very nice sunlight.

1,4, and 7 are my favourites but really all of these are hands down some of the best I've seen posted of this species this season.

Congrats....

The Snowy Owl (Bubo scandiacus) is a large owl of the typical owl family Strigidae. It was first classified in 1758 by Carolus Linnaeus.

Until recently, it was regarded as the sole member of a distinct genus, as Nyctea scandiaca, but mtDNA cytochrome b sequence data (Olsen et al. 2002) shows that it is very closely related to the horned owls in the genus Bubo. However, some authorities debate this classification, still preferring Nyctea.[2] The Snowy Owl is the official bird of the Canadian province of Quebec.

Beautiful set, Troy! They're all fantastic, but I gotta pick the first one as the absolute winner of the set- sharp, colorful eyes and a beautiful blue background to really make the white pop! Great job!
