Ottawa West

This one let us get quite close. Looks like it found a small patch of snow to sit on in a shallow ditch. So far, not much snow here, hence, the Snowies are quite easy to spot. That will change soon, no doubt.

Nikon D800 ,Nikkor 500mm f/4D IF-ED AF-S II

Interesting that it wanted to be on the only bit of snow around. Nice capture, Hank.

Poor thing... I hope the snow comes soon so it can have some protection and cover! They stand out so dramatically now. Your photo is excellent.
