"Common" seems a very derogatory word to describe such a fantastic looking creature. Fantastic detail you have captured here Bob. I like it.

Great detail, wonderful shots Bob! However......Otis has other words for owls and they are not so "common" either...and not fit to be posted here!

Regards!

thanks Bruce, not sure who labeled the bird but it does have great detail as you say and is silent in flight.
