Oh Frosty Days
Interesting story behind this photo, and it happened on a morning with the temperature a balmy -20 Celsius.
So I'm down by the Bow river on a walk about, and while enjoying my walk, I hear a commotion going on somewhat ahead of me.
When I say a commotion, it was a gang of magpies that had discovered a Great Horned Owl on its roost and the magpies were not letting the owl get any sleep.
As you can tell from my photo, the owl had been there for some time, as she was covered in frost from the over night fog.
Shortly after I shot this photo, she had enough of the magpies and flew off with the mob of magpies trailing behind her and shooting obscenities!
