Rik, you have to be pleased with this set of superb images, excellent work!
I had to hike through about a mile of snow to get to the first owl. And since I just had elbow surgery about a week ago, my right hand is good for nothing but pressing the shutter button. The bright side is that it was just me and one other guy on the owl for like 45 minutes. I would have stayed longer--I know I could have found him again after he flew off--but my right hand was an icicle even inside the glove because of the surgery on my ulnar nerve.

Good for you in sticking with it, your perseverance paid off big time with these shots. Powell, Wyoming love the area have rode my motorcycle through that area many many times.
