The Night Visitor...
Mr., (or Ms), Barred Owl showed up last night. We see this species,
plus the great horned, and hear the Saw-Whet regularly. It let me creep up to within about 20 feet, as it was gazing around at the ground looking for nighttime critters. Shot with my new Canon 40D, ISO 400, auto flash/focus, f5.6 at 1/60, 17-85 EFS lens, racked out to the 85mm stop. The close-in is cropped considerably, but retained decent sharpness. Mr Owl sat there for half an hour and then swooped, picked off a mouse and flew to a taller tree. Beautiful creature. Thanks for looking...  GL,mD
