Hemma, I hope you can see a snowy. I don't know about the one in your neighborhood, but they are a species that are active during the day. Most of the time they're in large open areas like fields and are often seen on the ground or close to it.
Good luck!

Thanks haha! I have a goal for the year to get good photos of 5 owl species. I have one so far, but the year is young!

Thanks, and now that I have a good telephoto lens, I'm hoping to see another one soon.
Don't worry Ashley, I've posted all the species of owls I have photos of, so no more pain:-)
