TN Birders,
Today I made the 600 mile round trip to see the Snowy Owl in Kentucky.
He was right in the field mentioned-being harassed by a photographer. I
would not describe this person as a "birder" because I hope birders have
better ethics! The owl flew to a pole just over my head and I had to
wait until he flew to another pole to see him well. I was able to make
some great pictures from inside my car. There were other birders there
and they all stayed in their cars too. I know the temptation is great
to chase the bird to get it to fly or whatever a photographer thinks he
needs for that " great picture", but please show restraint and respect
the bird's space. I'll say this, those yellow eyes are spectacular!
