Located a pair of Great Grays that I have known about for a while. Found the male on his evening hunt, he had just come up off his perch to attempt a kill. He was focused and intent but missed his mark.

CANON 5DIII, CANON 500 F4 IS, ISO640, 1/1000, F5.6, Monopod.

Terry, great positioning of the owl - it's cool to see light through the wing and tail feathers. The eyes are focused and clearly tell the story. Excellent.

Beautiful angle and pose showing the face and the eyes with that intent stare. The evening light and colour tones are gorgeous and the icing on the cake. Love this one Terry!

What a shot. Striking eyes and nicely backlite wings.

Thank you all sincerely. I came away with several very nice images but a proud moment of observing
him and staying out of his way so he could go about his business.
