Duxbury Beach, Snowy Owls

This morning I drove Greg Gale and Tom Nelson out to Duxbury Beach in hopes of showing them a Snowy Owl (neither had seen one before in the wild), and we were very lucky, spotting three (possibly four) of them.  It was as cold as I have been, the wind chill factor must have been 10 below.
But it was great to see them. 
Here are a few pictures, plus some recent yard shots. My three-year old grandchild Alex watched the feeder and saw Goldfinch, Bluebirds, Red-bellied woodpecker, Downy, Blue jay, Junco, Chipping sparrow, and Cardinal, all in the space of about 15 minutes.
