Snowy Owl Flight..............ISO 4,500.....500mm (750mm).....f/6.3.....1/1000.....0.33 ev.....Sigma 50-500mm

            While there's a bit of motion blur here, it is the best of my flight shots...

I really like that the foot pads and talons are so visible here...   And that the snowflakes all around the owl can be seen so clearly!

Hopefully this magnificent bird will spend the whole winter here, affording us photographers the opportunity to capture many more images like these :)
