That's a smooth criminal who knows it.
Perfect sky gradient, eyes facing forward, beautiful snowy ground. Good shot indeed.
The world has been enriched by people being able to take up photography semi casually.
Holy cow. You have blessed me this fine day with new knowledge and awesome photos.
Knowing they exist makes this a wonderful piece of trivia to add to my knowledge. Hopefully there will be more photographs of them in the future.
And here I thought for a second sooty owl was a new species and looking forward to it.
Still funny and cute though
Poor owl. I feel for him from the story.
The photo is a pretty cool shot. Like that owl is so done with all these other birds.
Wow, so cool you can just randomly see an owl in your neighbourhood. And he was kind enough to signal his location for you. Nice shot.
Would the owl have gone for the fish in there? Or just a curious lookity look? I'm curious now.
I love it. Such an amazing shot too. Thanks for sharing.
Awww. You're the best. Merry Christmas to you too if you celebrate. May the day be the kind you want.
For a moment I thought those brown leaves were holly berries and thought that this was picture perfect.
Still perfect though. Christmas!
That is really really impressive. Even if people go into the field for years being able to just pick out what the right signs are and therefore where to look for the best success isn't that easy. Kudos to the guy.
Went to a small sanctuary. Saw three types of owls. See photos below as my first humble contribution to this community. It was nice to see cool owls. Shitty photos though, sorry. But they were cool. The ~~burrowing~~barking owl was just the cutest little thing.
The Owl Nos.
