so nice to hear that you like these, Susan. These Snowies are quite unique, strange shaped eyes and such round heads with no ear tufts like some owls have. thanks for looking and leaving a comment.

Lovely picture, I'm fascinated by these owls as I've never seen one like this before. Don't have them here in N.Z.

thanks Alex, - am surprised you don't get many owls there, as you have such lovely wooded property. The white snowies look like lovely angels

thankyou Mary, yes, am pleased with this pose too, and thought the same thing re "the eye". Their eyes are an unusual shape. The white snowies look like Angels. This one was farther away, closer to the water in the bay.
