Description
Great Grey Owl (Strix nebulosa) hunting near West Rose Lake on the Mizzy Lake Trail in Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada. Great Greys only come as far south as Algonquin Park every 3-5 yrs when there are population eruptions, so it's rare to find them here! Took a lot of work too, someone had told me the area it was in but it still took about 1/2 hr to find it. It was shot on film so I watched it for about 45 mins just taking the occasional shot.
