Well, as my birding expert friends predicted, the barred owl that had been roosting in my yard has moved on after a week's visit. I took a couple quick pictures of him the day he arrived, then left him alone, hoping to make him so comfortable he would stay. The local crows and jays were not quite so hospitable, however, and started mobbing him on a regular basis.
Four days ago, a "murder" of crows chased him out of his roost, and he ended up on top of this broken-off red maple. I figured I had better take advantage of the photo op while I still had a chance. I saw him once more the next day, but as the raven quoth, "nevermore". Canon 1D 500 f/4 w/2x, ISO 250, 1/125 @ f/8, 550 BB +1/3 aj |
