St. Isidore - the Snowy saga continues. Whenever I get a chance I look for different types of shots with these beauties. I try to represent a variety of individuals so we can see differences between males and females at various ages.

I did a run west of Montreal to about 10 km from the Ontario border. Traditional open habitat for Snowies. I had 18 after 4.5 hours of intense searching. One all white male (except for a couple spots I could make out on primaries) was dazzling. This male of unknown age was definitely a smaller bird. More juvenile females are showing up now.

Ingleside - It begins again. This is my first Snowy of the winter, not one of the few individuals that summered in Ontario. No idea if it will stick around or is heading further south. Others to follow soon we hope.

Gatineau - Looking back over this amazing winter for Snowy Owls, I never thought I'd come up with a picture like this. A returning bird has probably been around for a couple of weeks and who knows when it will decide to depart. Seeing this species in such a setting is totally unexpected. This completes my run for 225 birds.

Kingston - Moments before sunset, this juvenile female presented herself for a photo op. The season is almost done; the numbers are dwindling rapidly. Our wintering birds have left and those that were in the U.S. and stopped over briefly are moving on.

Ottawa - I thought I was done with Snowy Owl pictures but the birds decided otherwise. Only in migration can you find individuals willing to tolerate each other's presence. The sight of a 'flock' of Snowies is not what most expect to see. There were six birds present in a very tight area, two or three usually together most of the time. At one point four birds within 15 feet of each other.
