Dude!

Beautiful bird and outstanding rodent hunters

Nice Mikey

Tx . nice down the S/S yesterday ><<

I am on a mission today to see a Snowy owl... headed up to Plum Island for several hours with camera and binoculars

good luck ><:ss:

A friend of mine lives in Fairhaven and has seen them on West Island already this winter.

last year in ct at nite owls would fly out into li sound and dive down and get ducks for a meal.

yeah i was just watching a show on Snowy's and to feed their chicks
they consume two lemming's per day

so where ever rodents are plentiful you'll find these owls

Ya wanna see them chase a rabbit , Good thing there are bushes & brush ><>:eyes:

Any luck ? I read there were 3 around yesterday.

took the kids to Duxbury beach this morning looking - no luck

Not a snowy owl, but this eagle showed up in my backyard yesterday.

No luck at Plum Island for me.... I scouted the whole area and spoke with many hard core birders... There was a sighting at Salisbury the previous day

last year sachusset in newport was the spot, they were every where, already seen two there this season.

with all the rabbits and rodents there, im sure theyll be there all winter again.

Never seen a snowy, but I'd love to. I'm thinking Gooseberry would be a good place to look? Some kind of owl scared the crap out of me out there one night last fall...

Todays was a female , of course no colors .

photos suck , I couldn,t get any closer ..I needed a Mike L. lense or walk on water shoes /////////didn,t bring either ><<

If you like to see a hawk or owls swoop down then attached a small length of twine to a mouse against a contrasting background.

I was there too... no camera. Testing out an Akios reel I hap just spooled... saw the owl over on the soft side.

was that you cast the storm shad ?????

There are a few Bald eagles around. Saw one the other day sitting on the ice at Wallum Lake.

Took this photo at Cranes a few weeks back. It was published in the local Newspaper this week. Pretty Cool

Bucktail... green Toyota Highlander in back.

well this guy was casting a 6" storm shad ...........@ 1st I thought it was a plug maker .testing his produce .

I guess he was just getting a early start :lama:

That guy's wearing my pants, my coat AND my hat... and he has the same red and silver wrapped Rainshadow. Dam... that's just too weird.

Have not taken it of the rod yet...

Saw a snowy at the Misquamicut State Beach just after Christmas. It was sitting atop a telephone pole when I took my daughter there to practice driving. It was very brave and did not startle when we drove by time and time again. In fact while practicing parking we watched it swoop down to a puddle, take a drink, and then fly back up onto the pole. VERY cool

Last winter there was one that hung around the condos near the water slide all winter.

I hear that Napatree has them too.

Nice picture.
