Toronto Zoo, Sunday midday  (BTW, Polar Trek exhibit gives great views of a snowy owl and the cage is close enough to be blurred out)

really?

come down to the Don River. between the Brickworks, the Don River path and Leslie Spit, i kid you not when I say I've seen around 70 BCNHs this year...probably more than that.
just saw a juvenile last week.
they were nesting at leslie spit back in April, so perhaps you have to come closer to the lake to see them. but last week, i saw at least 3 of them. maybe 4.

anyways...still a great capture. i love seeing their red eyes glare in pictures.
