Nice Bob, sharp as his talons, and beak

Excellent shots Bob. We can hear these all during the night around here. Hardly ever see them during the day though.

These are so beautiful, Bob! Well done. Lots of detail and great light, too. Never knew these fellas were so colorful! Love them all!

Charlie, it was taken in the Rocky Mountains, that has to count for something.

I love that second shot! It's an unusual angle to see. They're all beautiful and sharp.

Dennis, the owls are so silent when they are flying or diving down for prey, quite the hunter.

They also had other owl species, hawks and eagles to view up close. Our grandkids really enjoyed the up close experience.

that is my favorite also, you can really see the feather detail and it almost looks like stitches around the white on the face. Thanks for the kind words, glad you liked the photos. Bob
