Snowies Still Here

Just took a walk back the lane to our bush lot. Was hoping to see blue birds. Instead, I saw two snowy owls which have not yet returned to the North. Large and regal looking, they are beautiful birds. 

Owl No. 1 watching from a laneway post.

It didn't like my intrusion so flew to the top of a post a field away.

A second snowie was perched atop a thin steel fence post not far from the first owl.

The lane is still snow covered and not yet fit for a small tractor to travel on.

After a long winter, it's so nice to hang the washing outside.
