Snow - owl & rabbit prints

[Elen Sentier]

A friend just sent me THIS on Facebook ...

A rabbit's final hop is imprinted into the snow as an owl swoops in for it's next meal.

Wrong place at the wrong time! Not for the photographer though.

I think the owl had got it right . It is a fantastic shot, downloaded for my wildlife collection.

Whats the track to the right of the picture? On my phone so hard to see.

In my opinion that must have been an extremely small bunny and a very large Owl. When the talons bit there was no struggle or kick as the Owl's grip closed. The take off must have been vertical with no drag marks or sign of a struggling Bunny to mar those perfect imprints of the Owl's wings, right out to the primary feathers. Mmmm! Dr Watson...
