And what great shot you got! Powerful certainly seems to be a well chosen adjective to descirbe the owl. Spectacular creature.

Is that your flash refelcting in its eyes?

Yes I needed some flash to capture him under the cover of the trees. His one-taloned pose is apparently typical of how they roost during the day. He was sitting above a small waterhole, probably waiting to pounce on small creatures coming down to drink.

Beautiful Karen. I have Tawny owls in my garden but very rarely see them, just hear them calling. They can be very noisy some nights and I do hear them call occasionally through the day but have never been able to get a photo. I'm envious.
