Cliff, I agree, got to take some with me when I go hunting kingfishers at the Reserve. I am bound to run into him there. AAhh what a boisterous guy, just got to me that day. Couldn't stop bragging

Look at that orange eye...no wonder the Owl is deemed wise...you captured the look of wisdom here.

I love your work Amin!!!

Amin

I don't usually like shots like this, tethered....

Notice I said usually...

This is amazing, perfect crisp focus on the owl and a perfect blue sky.
I could almost reach in and stroke the bird, but I fear my clicking finger will be nipped off!

Fantastic picture

Well done!!

Paul
