Short-eared Owl




I had fun taking these shots. There were lots of opportunities given that he/she stayed
in the area for over an hour hunting for mice. It was one of those rare opportunities
being in the right place at the right time.

Wow, wow, wow Russel your short-eared pics ROCK! They are all nice, but the last one is by far my favorite. Beautiful.

Thanks Mark, they are really interesting birds. There were at least two birds in the area for a while and at least one stayed around most of the winter. This was my best day of shooting. The last one is my favorite as well.
