Awesome moment in time! I have been fortunate to have two sightings out here in the Chilcotin, BC. I missed my photo opportunity because I was rushing my dog to the vet to get stitches for his foot: Next time :) Great photo - and thanks for sharing!

Thank you Sheri & Allen, appreciate the nice comments. Tough shooting in the fog but you have to make the best of weather conditions when you find a Pygmy Owl...

Sheri Rypstra

Superb!

Allen Woodliffe

A very cool shot, Tony....well done!

Description
On a very foggy and frosty afternoon I was lucky to find this Northern Pygmy-Owl hunting voles and songbirds. It is amazing to watch these tennis ball sized owls hunt prey that is nearly the same size as they are.
