Excellent series Pius. That is such interesting and rarely documented behavior. The look of the facial disk feathers after the bath is very cool. I love the tightrope walk out on that log.

What great set of images! The walk on the branch and the toe in the water are an amazing prelude to the bath. I have never seen anything like these images.

Fabulous execution of capturing such a unique occurance, it's not like you get a second chance at these.
I enjoyed every frame.

The owl looks like it's dancing in "Toe testing the water" - my favorite in the series. Wonderful images!

Wonderful series of photos! I can't believe how gingerly that owl approached the water. He was going in on his own terms and wasn't about to jump in all of a sudden.
