There she was, on a pole.
They usually get on poles overseeing fields for mice, voles, and other prey.
I parked and shut my truck off to not disturb her, she tells My Modern Met.
She was on a less than attractive utility pole with a bunch of lines running through it.
My dream shots of this snowy diminished as fast as it came on.
I got the shots of her I had been envisioning.
It is always a bittersweet moment when your hard work and planning pays off.
Now, it’s time to focus on a different photography goal.
What a dream come true to finally capture this uniquely rare snowy owl in all her beauty.
Maggert’s photographs of Creamsicle, as she calls the owl, have been making the rounds online.
Just how rare is it?
But without further testing of its feathers, there is no way to know for certain.
For Maggert, no matter what the case, Creamsicles portrait remains a once-in-a-lifetime photograph.
