    Amherst Island Snowy

    Went down to Amherst Island on Sunday, spotted 3 females two close this is one of them and one about 300 yds. from the road. A large male again about 300 yds. away and about 6, 1 year old birds most were about that 300 yds. away but the two females were abut 40 yds. away. This is one of the females that was sitting on top of a single strand hydro line.

    Cheers: Allan

    I've never even seen one of them. One of the coolest birds ever IMO.

    Been looking to capture an image of one, they've been spotted along Lake Erie. Nicely done.

    Thank you for sharing. The owl looks like she is smiling at you.

    I've never seen a snowy owl either. They sure are gorgeous.
