The Variable Hawk is one of the most commonly seen birds of prey in Patagonia, but you might not know it. As its name suggests, it appears in a bewildering multitude of different morphs - the species is described as "polymorphic" that differ from each other to an extent that many argue that they should be considered different species.
DISCLAIMER: This female Snowy Owl was photographed from a safe distance, using a 600mm prime lens, with a 1.4 Teleconverter on a cropped sensor, which is a 1260mm equivalent. The image was also cropped in post processing.
Snowy Owl
The Snowy Owl (Bubo scandiacus) is a large, white owl of the typical owl family. Snowy Owls are native to Arctic regions in North America and Eurasia. Younger Snowy Owls start with darker plumage, which turns lighter as they get older. Males are almost all white, while females have more flecks of gray plumage.

The Grey Goshawk is a medium-sized bird of prey. Seen hovering over a paddock in Blayney, NSW, Australia.
Eakins Oval, Philadelphia.
T4 is re-learning the basic mechanics of twigging. He had gotten the hang of it this past winter, but then seemed like a novice again when the nest-work picked back up a couple of weeks ago.
On this particular morning he was already working in the nest before dawn. Mom was perched above, apparently supervising.
He spent about 20 minutes tidying before venturing out to retrieve a small, easy, stick. Then he got ambitious and went after this one. He eventually snapped it off, but did not bring it to the nest. Instead, he flew to a tree near the museum and left it there on his way to Lemon Hill.
