Northern Saw-whet Owl
Contest Number: 182 Contest Theme: Birds Lens: Da* 300mm Camera: K-1 Shutter Speed: 1/125s Aperture: F5.6 
Posted By: jjansen, 10-08-2021, 09:37 AM

A friend told me there was a way to attract certain species of owls just by mimicking their calls. While out on a hike close to home I practiced calling different owls and to my surprise one answered back. I was than able to call it in to a near by tree for some fun photos!

He/she looks surprised that you are not an owl. Your practiced call must have been very good!
