We finally had some sun light today so went looking for the resident Long-eared owl this afternoon. Started out around 2:00 PM, it was windy and COLD, had to be -15c with the wind chill.
I arrived early and noticed a female Kestrel hunting along the hydro lines.
I haven't seen you post in awhile > I've been away but check in > So nice to see you're post.
Great capture on the Kestrel > Shot number 2 Is KILLER!!
4 & 5 have some tuff lighting from the
side but still good shots.
The Long eared owl looks weird to me > I've never seen a long eared owl before. The picture looks stretched out vertically. Is this d/t resizing or is this how the bird looks naturally?? I think I've seen one other post of this owl and If I remember it looked the same way. Those eyes are intense.
So great job on number 2 and looks like you were in the right place at the right time >> The Mouse is in focus and I think the caption should read " Uh Oh!" Or something a little more adult in nature

Thanks Anthony,
The Long-eared owls are very strange looking Anthony, even more so when in the flesh. A better name for them I think would be Long-Owl.
Thanks for you comments, appreciated,
Rob
