Excellent image, Peter- I guess that is was "your day" ! ( Nice to see photos taken with the 400 5.6- certainly still a fine lens- still use mine at times).

Great to have one in a park close to you. Excellent image of this fine looking Owl, one of my favorites.

Smashing shot Peter and a tribute to your persistence and tracking skills. (tell tale droppings). (is that a snack by its feet?).
