They are beautiful birds indeed!Wow! there is two beauties!
Yes and a nice setting, reminds me of my childhood home.They are beautiful birds indeed!
I'm fascinated by owls of every shape and size and love it when I can find one in the wild to photograph. Sometimes I find them by noticing small birds mobbing them and follow the racket, sometimes I spot likely owl nests throughout the year, especially if there's signs of recent white wash and owl pellets on the ground and sometimes I cruise around likely owl habitat in late winter on cross country skis and notice where owls are nesting for the year. But I sure love capturing images of owls any time of year.
Here's a Burrowing Owl shot by the roadside in Central Washington who was kind enough to pose for me for a while in soft evening light.

Thanks Callie, yeah these threads have encouraged me to look back into my files and it's fun coming across images that I haven't looked at in a long timeDave, Some images are worth going back too ~ it just has that something that you could never repeat or that you have not seen since!

Great shot! Unfortunately, I never see owls in my neck of the woods although I am sure they are around as I hear occasional barn owls (I assume) as there are a couple of old barns near me. I will keep searching, they are beautiful!I'm fascinated by owls of every shape and size and love it when I can find one in the wild to photograph.
