 Oh yeah! I was pretty excited the day I took this. I know I have taken an owl shot before but it is still just as exciting. The very same day I also took pictures of golden eagles, bald eagles, a falcon and a badger..yes a badger..how cool is that! It was awesome. Still pretty hyped about it all. Oh and it wasn't take at a zoo. Wyoming rocks!

I do love a good owl photo! Especially when you managed to capture one not in captivity! Love the tufted ears :-) Owls are so cute!

Awesome details and textures in the bird...I think you need to go back and find that barn again...the perfect challenge is here

Oh yes! I'd think I had died and landed in heaven to see a magnificent bird like this in the wild. There is something so majestically haunting about owls! This one is shot and processed to perfection.

Your owl is cross eyed! Seriously, nice capture but the subject could have been a bit brighter.

It's nice to see the whole bird for a change but it's a bit dark.
