PEEK-A- BOO !! After many hours standing in a stiff breeze of 10° wind chill, this lovely female Snowy Owl popped out of her little roosting spot and up onto the top of the jetty in fast fading light.... my digits were so frozen from Raynaud's Syndrome that had to try different fingers to depress the shutter. finally did get a shot of her and also a photo of her in the distance on the jetty as well as her playing hide and seek for most of the day! My first look at such an iconic creature in all her feathered glory! (West Central Ohio)

Raynaud's Syndrome causes some areas of the body — such as fingers and toes — to feel numb and cold in response to cold temperatures or stress. In Raynaud's disease, smaller blood vessels that supply blood to the skin narrow. This limits blood flow to affected areas, which is called vasospasm.
