Barred Owl Likes my Bird Feeder
Posted By: normhead, 02-11-2015, 03:23 PM

Cross posted from the 300mm plus lens club...

Today at the feeder, through the window and by the time I'd put the 1.4 TC on he'd gone,
K-3, DA*60-250 and my kitchen window. ƒ4, 400 ISO.

No doubt attracted by the same mice that brought us the Northern Shrike. I didn't see a single squirrel while he was sitting up there.

If you see any mice or squirrels down there, let me know eh? (He says "eh" because he's a Canadian owl.)






And one with the 1.4 TC, right after this image, he swooped down, pulled a mouse out of the snow and took off.


I've put on the A-400 for a few more images.... he' still there, but it's too dark to shoot.

Love these, Norm - great shots.
Thanks Paul. We've heard this guy for years, seen his pellets on our trails, this was the first time we've actually seen him. SO while I hope we see him more, but.. you take what you get.
