I saw many barred owls but no one in so nice environment. The BG is lovely and mysterious. I will be in Vancouver in 2 weeks and I hope I will see one like yours. It looks like 3 D picture. Congratulations!

Just stunning Connor. I'd be tempted to remove the stick merging with the tail.

Thanks Alan! I agree about the stick, but I don't clone. I'll just have to get a better shot in the future!

Connor, this is one of the prettiest images of a barred owl I have ever seen. The setting is special, and the light in his eyes is great.
