rare sighting

while visiting my sister in kingsville, ontario

the small town of 20,000 was buzing with bird watchers

from as far away as new hampshire

a great grey owl showed up just before the holidays

20 inches tall with a wings span of 5 feet it's the largest

rarely seen below lake superior it's a long way from home
i wish i had my big camera with me
