    Nice hooters indeed. I have found that owls are very hard to find. I have tried to find them from listening to them woot in the woods, but never had any luck. Your shots are great and Rohirrim managed to find 2, thats awesome.
    Best regards,

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
