Thanks Harry, Yes the owls sure can be tough to find unless they are hooting, this was the only way I would have found this owl.

Dennis and Harry, I wish I could get any kind of owl any time of day! Great capture! Best, Pam

Outstanding image!!

These guys are vicious hunters. Just one took out my little GBH rookery about 4 years ago.

Excellent capture, Dennis.

Nice owl!
Dennis, great shot ... I love owls, but haven't been able to find one during daylight hours.

Here is one I got the other day just before sunrise.

Fabulous image Dennis - he looks like he is staring right at you, and the detail is amazing.

Wow Ric, I did not think that they were that vicious with the Great Blues, but more so mice then anything. Good to know and thanks for your comment.

Thanks very much for your comments as well. We got lucky and heard the owl in the mid morning hooting away, otherwise we would have never spotted it at all. That is a nice catch you got just the same, and hope that your luck will change as well as some of the others here as well.

Thanks very much Denise. Yes those big eyes were starring right down at me. Got to love the eyes though.
