A couple of weeks ago I headed out to where there have been some snowy owl sightings. Luckily I was able to find 3 of them. They are such beautiful creatures! I had horrible lighting (very grey and overcast) and I only have a whimpy 55-250mm lens, but all things considered I had a few pics I was fairly satisfied with. Photographing birds is not my “specialty” and I have much to learn. Especially where exposure is concerned. Anyway, I hope you like them!

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.

Thanks guys! I'm hoping to get out there again this weekend, but time is very limited so I'm not sure if I can.
