It was late February in Kuusamo district, north eastern part of Finland close to Russian border. We followed one single Great Grey Owl (Lappugle) from early morning to late afternoon for 7 full days. There was an abundance of voles this year and the owl was picking up new prey with little effort. We had rain, new snow, soft light, hard light, deep cold (down to 23 below) and deep snow (1,2 m on flat ground) ! The bird was incredibly confident picking up wild voles only 2 m away from our feet. Some of the pictures have also been shot with backup mice from the deep freezer,

I have picked out 20 pictures. It could have been 20 others !

A warm thank you to Minna Lindroth & Markus Varesvuo.

Also thanks to Heikki Nikki, Jarmo Manninen, Olli Lamminsalo & Lassi Rautuainen.
