Snowy Owls: SERIES of Two Images

Ottawa, Ontario

I have never seen two or more owls together like this. Earlier, the male (on the right) had flown off a fence post as we slowly approached. The juvenile (or female) [on the left] had been sitting below the fence line (See second image); then a fence post and had let us approach much closer. After 30 minutes or so; this second owl flew off to join the first.

The shot was taken at long range; and even with a long lens; this is pretty much a "OK, so I saw them together" shot!
