Modern - but I like it


Yesterday, 16 January 2017, I decided to make myself drive east of the city again. This is not a drive I enjoy at all and not one that I do very often. Two days earlier, I had gone out there to hopefully find a Snowy Owl or a Short-eared Owl but without success. In fact, I saw very few birds of any kind. On the day in between, 14 January, I had been out for the day with a group of birders, covering some of the same area. That day, we did see two Snowy Owls and two Short-eared Owls, but all of them were far, far away, basically no use for photos. Yesterday's trip was a repeat of my first drive - nothing, absolutely nothing. Any birders I came across were saying the same thing - no owls. I came home with a photo or two of this modern barn, a row of artistic silos, and a Chinook arch.
