Wow - nothing quite so wild over here on Christmas - just my nieces and nephews and a dog named Buster. Congrats on getting such a lovely visitor.

What a treat this was for you, Mitch, and how nice of the owl to wait until you got your camera...a true Christmas gift indeed! Lovely capture! Happy New Year.

Thanks so much James, Patrice, Kathleen, and Mark, for your comments. I appreciate it. I'd seen this bird up the road a few times, but never so close. It was a treat. My first time posting on this site. It was fun, and I'll surely do it again. :)
