Over the last three days I have made the pilgrimage to North Uist, Outer Hebrides, Scotland. to see (and photograph) the immature male Snowy Owl.
The bird was showing extremely well and at one point I was within 30 feet of him, with nearly 200 images in the can, including some flight shots, I returned home very happy indeed.

Nigel:
Your pic is sharp and really shows the 'personality' of the bird, as do the other shots I've seen of yours. Snowy Owl is definitely a must-see bird for me, and I hope I get as intimate an encounter as you had. Wonderful work.
