Christmas With Snowy Owls

I have just returned from a few days in northern Inner Mongolia, near the Russian border, where I spent Christmas with Marie and SoSo from Hong Kong looking for owls.  Highlights were many, including 6 species of owl – Eagle, Great Grey, Hawk, Little, Ural and Snowy.  Spending Christmas morning watching 6 of the latter on the sparkling snow-covered grassland, was an experience that will stay with me for a very long time….

Wishing everyone a belated Merry Christmas, here is a glimpse of one of the magnificent Snowy Owls that we were fortunate enough to encounter on our trip.  More details on this adventure very soon!
