Great Grey Owl

Uploaded by: minnesotamom — Tuesday May 8, 2012 — Canyon, MN (Current Weather Conditions)

I followed this Owl along the highway from tree to tree, trying to get some good shots of it even though it was far away---had my camera zoomed out to it's full max of 15X just to get it at all so these pics aren't the clearest. It was intent on hunting and I was distracting it, so it kept flying away a short distance. What a thrill to see this beautiful bird! This one nests somewhere in the area every year, but this is the first time I've been able to get photos.

About minnesotamom
minnesotamom Hi! My name is Kathy and I live in northern Minnesota, USA, where the winter temps have dipped down to -60º below zero F. The summers are mild, usually only in the 70ºs but in recent years have been up in the 90ºs---too hot for me. I love being able to travel the world from my office chair, through all your great photos! Thanks to everyone who takes time to look at my pictures! :D free hit countersCreate your own visitor map!
