Kingston - It's "only" a Tree Swallow but the nice play of light made for an attractive shot.

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.

Ottawa - It's odd to see one on the grass rather than snow.

Ingleside - I staked out this bird for over two hours. It was close but behind branches so I had to wait patiently in my car for it to move into the clear. It would often sit quietly for 20-30 minutes, feed within three feet of its position then rest again. It had no problem finding worms.

Lancaster - This may look like just another Snowy Owl but for me it is special. This is #175. I would never have believed that milestone could be achieved in one season but it was reached and surpassed today by several more. I have never seen this many in my life before, much less seeing them in one winter.
