Sun's Out, Buns Out, Pas Duex
Total Beach Bum!
Crystal Clear and calm day....
No, he didn't pack his lunch, but, he's dining al Fresco, today! Sitting by the inlet, warming himself, he's looking for a little something to nibble. Mainly, Snowy Owls eat shorebirds. Oh, they'll eat field mice, other raptors and small mammals, too, but, usually they prefer to eat, a little something more feathered.
Sadly, there was no getting him (or her) to get closer. This is about 150 yards away! AND mostly, he kept facing the other way. A few times, he spun to check out behind him. I only stayed on him about 15 minutes. it was 22, and cold. 22 and windy. 22 and hellish! With him so far away, the shot wasn't that good.
Twas a nasty day weather wise. COLD.
But birding? Snowy Owl, Barred, Ross's Goose, half a dozen other ducks, two kinds of woodpeckers, harrier in the distance, red tailed, possibly a juvenile Bald Eagle, and down on the beach, a dozen different types of Shorebirds.

I watched a really neat doc on owls and how quiet they are. Also another probably Attenborough, that showed them snatching birds. Good shot man.
