Thanks Morris, Bob and Birdie! A few of us are suffering from owl fever and we will probably do another owl shoot this weekend! They are so much fun to watch and photograph!

Very nice set Bobby!

They are indeed fun to watch and shoot. I'm hoping they are still around in a few weeks when I return.

Well you didn't have the light in your favor but you used it well and overcame some challenges

BG's are really nice Bobby in the set!
#2 the triples are wonderful, a little different character in each
#3 is creative. I wonder what this would look like with a great deal of selective darkening on perimeter and just some key light in those eyes showing? I love to play with images like this, I'm glad you presented it.
#4 lovely comp, perhaps my favorite, the BG looks 'painterly' on this one
Last one for me a bit bright but a rather cute peek out by the one in the back

Fun subject

Looks like you are making the most of this opportunity, Bobby! Great images, and sounds like a fun time with all those FMers (and fellow Olympians )

Thanks Greg! I don't know much about their behavior but I think they will probably still be around in a few weeks.

Thanks Karl! Appreciate the feedback. I can absolutely relate to all that you've said - about the selective vignetting, etc. But usually I vignette when the subject is more centered - and I usually try not to center the subject. For posting on the forum I would usually do a quick fix. When I am competing I will be a lot more meticulous and could spend an hour or more "fixing" an image.
