It sure was our lucky day! Dave and I have the most wonderful experience this afternoon. We were hiking on a trail in the north end of the Sault when this beautiful Barred Owl swooped up into the tree to our left actively hunting. It flew into two more trees. It was a magical experience and thank goodness I had my good camera in my backpack!!! December 23, 2021

It's so hard to focus when the bird is flying, especially when it's a surprise, so great job, Sheri!! Also...always have a camera handy, right?
