It was a cold winter’s day when a Snowy Owl flew low over the frozen prairie hunting for field mice and rabbits. As he hovered near me before his final assault, I was able to capture this shot. It had been over seventy years since our county in Colorado had a Snowy Owl wintered here and I spent almost six magical weeks photographing him.
