Title: Owl
Post by: Barbarian on March 17, 2012, 11:07:11 AM
This guy was being harassed by a mob of smaller birds, so he was reluctant to take off, and expose himself.  So I got close enough to get a good shot.   He doesn't look very pleased with me, though.

You're right, he doesn't look happy about having his picture taken.  Great shot.

Great shot.  Did the smaller birds have a nest nearby?  That could be why they were harassing him.
