It's nice to have a local recovery center like you have here with this bird subject. I'd LOVE to capture an image of one of these in the wild! Maybe time to revisit and grab a new image for a challenge? It's been a while. Jump on in. :-)

Great owl. Would like it even more if the details were sharper / more defined.

A curse on owls - one of those bastards took out my windshield on Christmas Eve. I hate it that they are beautiful. I could almost see this more vertical witht the owl coming off the side.

The focus on this is a little soft for my tastes to really bring out the contrast. The subject is facinating though! Nice framing -- overall excellent capture 7

What a beautiful owl. The object above his head is bit distracting. 7.
