...mostly we see those cute shots with strange head twists and turns. But I guess an owl's got to eat sometime. This is a pretty sweet shot Henrik!

This little guy made it into a few UK newspapers last month. What a hoot that was.

Thanks Eric.

Great work Henrik

Thanks Tom.

You captured the light on the eye perfectly. You do get the owls out there! Don

We do have the occasional owl here and there.

Had a few white ones this winter....oh wait, you know about those already.

This beauty is a residence of Washington state.

Where does one find Burrowing Owls around this neck of the woods!

Hey Ben.

We don't have them around here. Apparently there are or were some up around Merritt but I've never been able to find them. And they may be banded if they even do exist there.

These guys are from Washington state.

Hope that Mark IV is treating you well.
