This week’s Snow Owl
I made a loop out looking for Snowy Owls on Sunday…and other photo ops. I have yet to see one in Kennebunk, though they have been seen here regularly this winter. I did not find one on Sunday either, but there were 3 on chimneys along Mile Stretch on the south side of the Biddeford Pool. This one got off the chimney where I first saw it before I could sort out a place to park, but I saw it flying ahead of me across the road when I got turned around. They are impressive sitting…but only in flight to you get a real sense of how big these birds are! The Owl found another chimney and posed again. I am in the office in Virginia this week, so any Snowies will have to wait until next weekend 🙂
