A Flash of White 6706
The heaviest of North American owls, the Snowy, takes off from its perch. It will look for another place, not far away, but free from human encroachment. These beautiful birds pass their summers in the high arctic, where they raise their young and hunt for lemming and ptarmigan. Though they migrate south, they don't always make it this far south to New Jersey. Unlike many other owls, snowy owls are diurnal, hunting by day and night. They are elusive and skittish, and should be approached with caution and care. If they are overly bothered by human interaction they will frequently relocate. Cloudy weather has made photographing these birds ever so much more difficult lately. I do wish that they could stay all year! #ILoveNature #ILoveWildlife #SnowyOwls #WildlifePhotography in #NewJersey #Nature in #America #USA #Canon #Bringit #DrDADBooks #Photography #Picoftheday #Photooftheday
