Awesome capture Jim!! I don't think I have ever seen an owl around here. I guess I should head out to Dunrobbin. P.S.- Did you ever get my email? Congratulations.

Outstanding! It doesn't get much better than this. Congratulations on capturing the shot the rest of us dream about.

Incredible... I've never seen that in real life, let alone photographed it! Although we did have a tiny owl snatch one of the wild birds at our feeder and then slam into our sliding door. By the time I got my camera he'd shaken off his headache and took off, bird in hand, so to speak! Nice shot, Jim... great capture!
Robin-Lee Vieira commented on March 07, 2009 00:37:
