More Short-Eared Owls in better light today still fairly distant but good practice.

I've been playing with a new toy - a Celestron 750mm f6 Telephoto Lens. I've found it's very light challenged, in spite of the f6 aperture. Anyway, we finally had some sun at the same time there were some backyard visitors AND I happened to look outside. Taken through double paned glass that's not real clean.

Chip, I think those turned out very well, especially thru a window!

Thanks very much Carol - I'm still trying to figure out just how best to utilize that lens.
