With 6 mouths to feed the pair of owls need to be very efficient hunters....needless to say they have done a very good job so far. If only I was as proficient at birds in flight....felt fortunate to get just this one of an Owl In Flight With Lizard

Eric,

Such a wonderful capture. Are you moving away from cats?

Nice grab! These guys are small and fast and tough to shoot in flight, in my (alas) limited experience.

Good capture Eric. Cool to even see it. A thrill to capture, I'm sure.

I was looking for Florida Panthers but found these little guys instead...a pretty good trade off.

Nope, and neither was I. I went back for a second look later in the morning and everyone else had left. I guess the pair was less threatened with only me around and were very active.

Thanks Dave, not sure it's "bacon"...but am pretty sure it isn't kosher ...on the other hand, crickets (another burrowing owl favorite) most certainly is...who knew?

Thanks Ron...it was so much fun but at the same time incredibly frustrating trying to get one these devils in flight...the fact it had a lizard in tow was an added benefit.
