Juvie Spotted Eagle Owl

Along the Auob road in the Kgalagadi TFP.
Because it is so hot in the Kalahari, owls often sit on the shade side of a tree trunk or bush.

Nice image of a very good-looking owl, Callie. He looks hyped up in hunting mode.

Very nice. Looks similar to our Great Horned Owls. You got a great "eye shot" for sure!

Thanks Joe, they are very trusting in a way so it allows you to spend a bit of time.

Thanks Woody, we can sometimes hear them hooting here where we live in the city.
