This has been my nemesis bird for several years so I recently made it my priority. I made several early morning (up at 4 AM) trips to an area where they are known to hunt. I sat at the edge of the meadow and waited, hoping that one would fly close enough in adequate light. It was frustrating and exhilarating at the same time to see them flying about in near darkness and being unable to get any images. I finally got my chance the other day but unfortunately had to shoot at a very high ISO (I seldom go above 800 and usually stay between 200 and 400). I know there have been many excellent barn owl images posted here and mine is not in that category, but hey - its my first!!
I'll keep at it until I get what I want. Canon 1D4, 300mm f2.8 non IS, ISO 3200, f 2.8, 1/1000 sec, manual exposure, hand held Bob Kothenbeutel
