Loved the golden glow behind this bursting Poppy bud, seen at the Reader Rock Garden on 29th September 2010. One of my favourite things to photograph. I was fortunate enough to be invited by birding friends, John and Lorrie, to go with them and a friend in search of Snowy Owls for a few hours today. We travelled the backroads east of the city and managed to see three Owls, all distant, though not too bad by the time they are heavily cropped. Two were far away across a field (one useless as far as photos are concerned) and another was perched on some sort of antenna (?) in a field. We also enjoyed seeing a solitary Snow Bunting perched on a fence - don't usually see them alone. The meeting place this morning was definitely out of my comfort zone, but I made myself do it. I try and make myself do a new location each year : ) Such a lovely sunny day today, though quite windy out east of the city. Thanks so much, Lorrie and John, for a lovely day!
