Same Snowy as my other post, just a bit more in the water action.

Thanks folks :)

RWL - Pretty good size voles and field mice. We had a lot of snow quickly and an even quicker thaw so there are pools of water in all the tractor tire ruts. Its amazing action, hawks and owls are having a field day, no pun intended :). So much corn in the field that there isn't a need to bait at all.

Really cool thing even with the splash there was little to no noise at all.

What a great head on flight shot. It is as if I can feel his wind.
