This was a rare individual snowy owl that migrated to Oregon and quickly became a local sensation...
Note the straw in its mouth... it had just swallowed a vole:

I have not had any shots that sharp out of my 70-200 that I can think of. Also you are lucky you have owls that come out during the day. I just got my first owl today but it was asleep in a tree high up and I barely got a halfway decent shot that I could see it. 7D / 70-200 F4L IS / 400 5.6L / 50mm 1.8 / 18-55 Kit / CS5 plus other software.

Jan 09, 2012 00:55 | #9 Thank you, No Angle! These were taken with my 400mm f/5.6, and I was lucky to be able to get to the bird close enough so I could take these. The bird seemed comfortable, as it was sitting on a post by the road and concentrating on the mice activity around. It was fun watching and photographing the bird. Sony A7r
