Short-eared Owl - Boundary Bay, BC
On a very cold and blustery day I was fortunate enough to get a short-eared owl perched close to the dyke at Boundary Bay. He was looking for rodents in the tall grass and would hover above them and plunge down with his feet extended to grab the unsuspecting prey. The wind was blowing in from the water and was giving the owl a bit of a bad hair day.
