Great Grey Owl - Hovering
This Great Grey Owl was hunting in a snowstorm. The snow was coming down with the slightest wind. The Owl used the wind to its advantage as it hovered over the field pinpointing prey under the snow. The forest in the background allowed the owl to stand out as well as highlighting the snowflakes.
