  1. David Pike glad you posted your photos of the Snowy Owl on Daily Bull Dog. Your photos are great.

  2. Kudo’s on the beautiful photo array. I’m especially buoyed by the Owl photographs, in a word, spectacular. I would enjoy seeing more.

    Keep up the great work.

  3. Enjoy the pictures you are all providing.They brighten up the times that are in someways a bit depressing, but with 2021 here there’s hope! Bird pictures are special, particularly the Black Duck at rest on seaweed.
