Snowshoe hare watching it snow in Idaho.
I LOVE SNOW! Winter is dramatic and photogenic. For wildlife it creates a beautiful contrast. Winter can be tough for wildlife but for some species, like ptarmigan, snow is a lifesaver. Burrowing deep into the snow keeps the ptarmigan safe from dangerous temperatures in the far north. For photographers, snow covers up all that distraction simplifying your compositions.
