Coyote, Great Grey Owl on a Slow Saturday (121110)

After a miserable Friday and saturday morning, the Sund seduced me out for an afternoon trip looking for the Great Greys.  We had been getting snow since Thursday, and I thought the snow would make a great backdrop for a Great Grey. We left the house about 2:15, and found this coyote, 45 minutes out.
Things were pretty slow. We found a Golden Eagle soaring well out of range, and after pretty much giving up on seeing one of the GGO's we found a couple taking photo's. Sure enough we found an Owl, but it was really quite skittish and didn't allow up to get close at all.
There were a lot of whitetail does out and about but the bucks have been mysteriously absence from scene as they should be chasing the females all around. A couple more coyotes and we were finished.
But wait, we also found a Short Earred Owl, just before by dark, so no images.
Have a great day!
