Thanks, Jack and Click.
Jack - I didn't brave the cold as you did; daily low here is between -20 to -25C. Although I liked to go out very much, I just stayed home and played with my photos.
Happy New Year and keep shooting and posting! Enjoyed all postings very much!

Oh dear, oh dear ...
The bird braved the cold and I almost froze my fingers as ... the wind blew in through my window with the special plexiglass insert with it's rubber tube lined 8" diameter cutout! Two other windows have fill flash sitting on each ledge because I'm basically facing into the sun. You would have to comment about me braving the cold.
Keep posting in 2018.

Speaking of braving the cold , daily average here has been right around -25 for the last 6 days. It really has the Bluejays hitting the feeders more than usual. This is from a back yard setup at my friends house. I couldnt believe that I got this in focus when I saw it on the computer.

Makes for good encouragement - I try and try and never get anything close to that! You're right about the cold!

That was pure luck to get them both sharp like they are. I saw the 2 of them on the corn stalk and fired a short burst just trying to get them both in the frame . I got lucky that the one on the right took flight as i had the button pressed.Jack Douglas said:

Those are some fantastic pictures of a snowy owl in flight Stuart!
Keeping the bird in focus while it seems to be turning to follow an erratically moving prey... I bow for thee my lord

Thank you, AlanF!
We love to complain, what's better than a bit of gripe 8) ;D ?!
We're in Ayers Rock at nearly 40, then the next night of 18 in Adelaide. Just like mood swing.
I walked the dogs just now at -16 C. Add a bit of wind. Not fun. Fully bundled, a fall won't hurt too much because of the layers, :.
A great New Year to you. May your shots are all keepers!
