Great Horned Owl, Gros Morne, end of July 2003, heavy overcast, busy background :(
The chick on this picture is looking at its mama/papa. The other parent was perching high in the trees on the left and the sibling was playing in the bushes on the right...
I must admit that I did not feel too comfortable having one of the parents just above my head....

Extremely well done, Tomasz. One of the better baby owl shots I have seen. The details are great and the BG is just right. Congratulations.

"Oh what big eyes you have for such a little fuzz ball!" An excellent image of a very cute little guy. I have seen them before and they are fascinating to watch.
