A Snowy Owl may be a gorgeous bird, but a Peregrine Falcon was just as thrilling to get to photograph.
There were two of them sitting on a huge driftwood log. The male, which was about 30% smaller, flew off, but the female stayed put. At one point it flew off as well, in response to a cry from the male, but then came back. I'm sure it was aware of me, but I was careful to stay well away. I spent about 30min slowly working my way closer, until I felt that I was close but not enough to bother the birds. I stayed there for another 15min, before the female flew off. I felt quite fortunate to get to spend so much time with the pair.
