Female Snowy Owl at dawn .

Species: Female Snowy Owl | Location: Elmira Ontario Canada , Canada

I set out on a freezing cold winters morning and walked through knee deep snow for a hour to get to this Female Snowy Owl . After hallowing out a clear spot in the snow I sat and watched this Owl for over two hours while she rest in this grass line . After the two hours pasted she took flight right in front and right at me .
