Thinking of Things to Come

I’ll start out by saying this Snowy was from last season…so thoughts of winter owls begins since I’ve received a couple reported sightings.
It does seem a bit early which makes me wonder why ?

The temps have now dropped and froze the country dirt roads that I frequent…which means less chance of getting stuck and a long walk to ask Mr. Farmer to come pull me out.
Now just have to wait for some clear sky.

Snowy Owl Encounter

Another day another Snowy…location and appearance told me I had seen this owl before and had missed an opportunity.

Every owl acts differently…if this was the owl I had seen before it wasn’t going to fool me this time.

If correct the actions of this male was to take off out into the field then shortly after takeoff will bank back around and fly back towards the pole line.

This time I simply waited and by his reactions my thoughts proved to be correct.
