For the most part a Snowy will stay perched on a pole when a vehicle passes by.
I had stopped a couple poles away and noticed headlights approaching in the distance…first thought was to wait till they passed.

Then heard the rattle,rattle,clang, bang and realized that this truck was pulling a trailer full of who knows what…second thought was so much for this Snowy.

So now sure that Mr. Farmer and his noise machine would spook the owl I simple waited with high hopes the owl would fly in my direction.

Thanks Mr Farmer…it worked out well.

They always make it look so easy…we have lift off !

It’s been a while since I’ve been out to check the Snowy situation…perhaps today would be a good day since my focus has been on other Winter Owls.

I’ve said before and will say it again…it’s a “Real Nature Rush”
Never get tired of looking down the lens and being eye to eye with an owl.
