Snowy owl finally !!!!

[fishindevil]

Well I sure have been looking for snowy owls this winter as I know lots of people are seeing them and taking some amazing pics of them so thanks to ofc member Joey sent me a website that shows recent sittings of snowy owls in Ontario I seen there was a few around me here on sturgeon lake and one near oakwood on my way home from work !!! So as usual I kept me eyes peeled for that "look for a 5 gallon white bucket" and wow !!! Finally there he was on top of a pole right beside busy highway 7 !!!! I pulled over and snapped a few pics from my phone before he flew away !!!! But I'm happy I finnally seen one as I have been looking so hard to see one !!!! It's not a postcard pic like some and it's only a phone but glad I seen him !!! Thanks for the tips from members that told me what to look for !!!!

based on the darkness of the plumage i would guess a young female...now you know where she is ...go back and try for more pics its going to get very busy with sitings for the next few weeks because the far south birds are going to start to head back up north soon...then poof ...they will all be gone

Shawn, I'm so happy you got to see and photograph one. I'm glad I could help and could only do so as another member helped me out so I payed it forward as they say. Hope you find some more. I think I'll try to find a few more and get a few more photographs before they are gone as Twocoda says!
