Found this Snowy Owl sitting in the shade of a post on a dock. Guess the Sun was too hot for it.
I really want a longer lens :-(

other sizes: small medium large original auto

A fine capture. Snowy Owls are usually back in the artic tundra by then. Possibly could't leave due to ill health?? Very sad situation...

Wow! What an unusual spot for such a bird, patti! Great find and thanks for sharing.

Nice observational image. He'll be heading north soon enough - I'll look for his arrival.

Something shady about this picture! Can't say I've ever seen a snowy owl in the wild, great capture Patti!

New lens are very very expensive. A solution to your want is learn how to get closer. Problem solved. :O)

What a sweet owl. Would love to capture a photo of one. I want a 500mm lens, too. My stupid camera is now obsolete.
