Agreed, Jerry. That’s why it’s such a privilege to live up here where such encounters are part of our lives. All the best to you!

G’day Gustav,

Years and years ago, a snowy swooped by me at the farm on Shattuck Hill, Newport. My heart just about jumped out of my chest! I’ve not seen another since. But I keep hoping.

Linda and I drove from Sorrento to Whistler today. Saw 2 bald eagles, a couple of hawks, about a thousand trumpeter swans, and a coyote. Any encounter, even from a moving vehicle, is a thrill.

Cheers, Jerry

This is my first comment on your blog Gustav. I enjoy your photography and your writings very much. I was fortunate to photograph a Snowy Owl here in SE MA this winter. The difference between your encounter and mine however, is that I went searching for the owl, and yours was such an unexpected surprise. How exciting for you! Thanks for sharing your story.

It reminds me of Christmas a few years back.
After opening presents with the kids, we returned to the kitchen for our traditional breakfast of muffins.
When I looked outside there was a large hawk on top of my birdfeeder. The hawk was motionless and I thought it was a statue that my family had mounted on the feeder as a present.

Very nice article and some fine images, Gustav. Like you, I find all life interesting and worthy of study, but there are special moments when something just presents you with a once in a lifetime experience. Even underneath a parka and woolen underwear, your hair stands on end in the owl’s gaze. Thanks for sharing the experience.
