Nice work Doug!! I'm delighted to learn that your abilities to find fox are not indicative of your overall ability to occasionally locate photgraphical wildlife!!
I've got my son with me here in WI this week--taking a day off today to head up to Oshkosh to see some BIF's---the metal and/or composite type though.
Best to ya.
Hey, I told you we would see a Fox and we saw one!! I told you we should have relieved Phil of HIS card, I don't think he even owns a computer!
Hope you had fun at the air show, did your son let you take your camera along Let me know when you are coming back in.
Doug, I didn't see the original (oversharpened) shots, but these are fantastic. I can't help but feel a little like Trailhiker (or, at least, I know how he feels). Congratulations on a great find!

Beautiful series of Great Horned Owl, Doug! Feathers and color superb!! Nice to catch the GHO out in the open. Most times I've viewed them, they were deep into carniforous trees. I especially like the close-ups.

Thank you for the wind words Gene. It's a case of being in the right place at the right time, wish that would happen more often!

Yes, Doug.. I would say that is close up... at first I thought it was GBH up close, and when you are expecting to see a heron and an owls eyes greet you, its quite a shock, let me tell you. These have great detail. Well done.
Thank you much Shelley. He was very close and evidently didn't want to leave his breakfast, so I just took a few and let him alone. Definitely a lucky find!
