A second year male snowy owl thanks to The Owl Foundation being released back in the wild.
Donna Hayes did the honours with Myriam helping. Donna was having trouble holding his cage as he knew he was going to be released. Cage was bouncing and he was pounding the door. It was cold it was windy and the snowy owl knew where he was going. One hop and he disappeared deep in the woodlots behind. Stunning owl.
Photos by me. |

Second snowy owl released. this is a first year male snowy owl.
Thanks to Toronto Wildlife Centre this fellow has a second chance at heading back to the arctic. With hundreds of acres to fly with no cars, or people he should do just fine.
