Snow balls...

[Bobobird]

Season's greetings everyone. Hope you have a great holiday period and a great 2015.

Snowy owls are the only birds I have been trying to get since December 1st. Most times they are either too far, not there, etc and the success rate is terrible. But will keep at it until...

Here are some of the passable shots.

1. Not impressed with the photographer.


2. So what? Can't someone poo?


3. Ok, ok, I will pose nicely.


4. Ha, ha, ha.


5. Bye...

All excellent shooting! #4 is especially a cool capture. Hope these guys get as far down as Mi again this year. They did a couple years ago.

[Benjy]

really good shots ,well done...

[Downrigger]

Just great.
What I love about wildlife/nature photography... One is never in total control, things could always be better, and there is often only enough time to remember 80% of what you need to do to execute as well as possible. Therefore, there's aways a reason to go out and try some more. But I hope these please you for now - they're very nice.

Thanks Kay, John, Neville, Rita, Binnur, Mike, Jeremy, Nick, Bernard, Mark.

Glad you liked the series or one or 2 within it. Will keep trying as long as they are still around.

Thank you for these...makes me laugh. When I did not see the whole pic of the first one, I thought s/he has a funny expression until I re-read what you said. So I peeked at the second one. These are good one. Brilliant as usual ... glad you had some keepers. Excellent.

GREAT set. 3, 4 & 5 are my favourites especially 4 which is a ripper. Love those eyes.

[Brownbear]

As always, truly exquisite. I adore all for different reasons (expressions/cute factor)... #5 is still my favourite but #2 could take its place.

That's awesome. Timing is everything. Snowies are at the top of my bucket list. Though we have them up here, finding them is very difficult. I keep trying to find an excuse for a winter business trip to your part of the world. Nicely done.

[Bobobird]

Thanks Izzie, Graham, Christina.

Thanks Dan. This winter is as good as it gets. There are 16 reported in this area alone but as usual can still be hard to find.
