Talking Took my dog to the beach, found a Snowy Owl (pics)

Really incredible bird to see in person, was maybe 100ft away. Bonus pics of pup at the bottom.

Great pictures, thanks for sharing! I probably would have screamed like a little girl when I saw that extremely cool and rare owl, scared it away and then my dog would have bitten me for being such a jerk.

Thanks for the compliment! AFAIK there's only a few on the whole island, I was very lucky!

He does well, he loses a lot of the density to his fur and we brush him frequently. Not really any different from a Golden in the summer.

We go to the beach and all we find is sand. Snow and sand is unheard of, thought they were like oil and water. Beautiful pictures, by the way.

Haha yeah I guess I'm somewhat used to it having grown up on the beach here. Winter just means snowy beaches, which is perfect surfing weather since "normal" (not crazy) people stay indoors!

The owl would definitely be the serious one in that relationship
