p.2 #1 · Short-eared Owls


wow, these are beautiful. I have headed out to see them in the morning in our area a couple of times, but they appear to come out about 45 mins before sunrise and then are back inactive about 10 mins or so. There was almost no light to shoot them. Your photos appears like they are a bit latter in the day. Do they sometimes get active again around 1-2 hours after sunrise?

Thank you!

Louie, You are motivating me to get out there and see these guys. I have been busy with house repairs the last weeks so have not been able to get out there. Bruce

Outstanding, Louie. Simply spectacular series, and as others said, just kept getting better as I scrolled down. I love the looks they're giving each other in 4. The interaction with the hawk in 8 is magazine cover, competition prize winner worthy.

Gero

I very much appreciate your kind words Gero, thank you very much.

Thanks very much, as to when they make their appearances in my experience you can never tell. I've seen them active in the mornings and also in the late afternoons.
