Snowy Owl Enjoying Afternoon Sun

I asked my husband very nicely to spend a few hours to go for a tour on the country roads north of us to look for Snowy Owls one fine sunny winter afternoon and like the awesome husband he is, he agreed. I need a driver so I can search and he can drive and it worked well. Imagine my delight when the regal Snowy Owl was found perched on a fence post in a farmers field. The Snowy Owl is a sit and wait hunter. Silent and patient it surveys the winter corn field as it hunts during the day, unlike other Owls. There haven't been too many sightings of the Snowy this winter so actually spotting this Arctic beauty between Fergus and Arthur Ontario Canada was thrilling!
