My first thought was what the heck is up with her legs?! 🤣

I really enjoyed this shot once my brain sorted out what was going on. Also grabbed some more Snowy pics from the series.

Such great smiley faces in all of these.

What a cool perch!! Thanks for landing on it for me buddy

I spent weeks with this Snowy Owl and it will go down as one of my top photographic opportunities ever.

Fun fact: Snowy owls prefer open space. They like to hunt in treeless places: tundra, airport fields, or beach dunes. The open space helps them in their pursuit of prey.

Look at these tiny wings and long horns

This owl is just made up of all sorts of odd proportions! 🤣

Fluffy feet

It's hard to pick just one favorite part of a Snowy, but the feet are always a great choice!

Same energy?

[–] anon6789 3 points 10 months ago

Lol the resemblance is uncanny! Even the face!

Great Job!

Don't forget to check out the pinned post for the superbowl². We still need to fill up the team rosters. No sports knowledge required.

There are still many missing obvious nominees: Sooty, Burrow, Great Horned, Little, Ruru, and about 200 more! Let us know who you want to see play in the big game!

It looks like it really has to pee.

It does look a bit like a pee pee dance!

In case anyone was wondering if owls pee....
