We saw 20 Snowy Owls south of the fire station on
Stella 40 Foot around the fenced area below. Up to 11 at a time
congregated inside the fence of this work site. It wasn't a large
area. What was so attractive to the Snowys? 2 January 2019.
The Snowys rested during the
day, then in the afternoon they scattered looking for prey on the
neighbouring fields. 2 January 2019.
Gorgeous almost all white
plumage, most likely a male. 3 January 2019.
This owl, probably a female,
has neat ear tufts. Link to Ron Pittaway's article
Do Snowy Owls
Have Ear Tufts? 3 January 2019.
The Snowys perched on fence
posts, poles, trees and any perch that gave them a good vantage
point. 3 January 2019
Another very pale individual,
likely a male. 2 January 2019
