Hi weixing.
Those are just too cute, fantastic captures, well done.

Cheers Graham.

Hi Mackguyver.
I now see where I got confused, D'oh, thanks for clearing up the confusion! didn't even notice that the poster of the wise owl was LSV. It is a good shot anyhow.

Cheers Graham.

Oragutan & Graham:

That's a question for LSV him or herself - I was referring to the person that posted the photo of the Burrowing Owl sitting above the electric fence a couple of posts above this one. Sorry for the confusion!

Graham, I love all of the guesses, and I'll add my best guess:

LSV: Lunacy Started [by] Valvebounce

;D

Hi,

weixing, those are awesome! The second one is really sweet and I had no idea they actually slept like that!

Same to me... This is also the first time I saw an owl do that...

Have a nice day.

A few of ours - the young Great Grey Owl was a fantastic subject

David, thanks for posting and I agree the Great Grey Owl shots turned out great. I particularly like the expression in the second photo.

Really nice shots David. I especially like the second one. Well done.

The great-horned owl was back this morning and I was ready with my flash and Better Beamer (almost, forgot the fresnel ???) but I got a better shot in terms of lighting, but I'm still not happy and wish I had the 600mm+2x on my tripod...

Same owl from 2014 - just playing with old files and saw this thread again. Have been hearing an eastern screech owl trilling outside my window at night but not been fortunate enough to see it in daylight.

5DMKIII + 600II +1.4XIII and better beamer fill flash.
