an unexpected sight before sundown

December 28, 2013 by Cynthia

It was to be a short walk in the Belle Isle Marsh. I expected to capture sunlight on branches. The snowy owl in a tree was quite the surprise. Thanks to a kind stranger who pointed out the white spot and even let people borrow his binoculars for a better look.
