Pre Christmas Surprise

Clear calm day just prior to Christmas crunch time and would be the last chance for a bit to visit the forest. After spending time with active Gray’s it was time to make my way home.

Little did I know what was in store as I pulled over to stretch my legs before the drive home.

Walking around to the side of the truck and just happened to look at the bush line…there sat my Pre Christmas Surprise starring at me from the edge forest…I don’t know who was more surprise ?

Thank You very much Mother Nature for the Pre Christmas Barred Owl Surprise.

Not to be Disappointed

Looking at the options for a productive day ? It was between the open farm lands for Snowy Owls or head to Bush Country for a chance of Great Grays…gut feeling told me Bush Country and turned out not to be disappointing.

As it’s still early in the season and hopefully this would be a good indication for the rest of the winter…time will tell ?
