    Silent as an owl…

  6. Who cooks for you?, Eliza. 🙂 Lovely portrait. It’s good to see this healthy looking individual after so many were not well/injured the last few years.

    Such wonderful birds! I hear them in the evenings but I’ve only seen one here once in very poor light. I guess we need to build an owl house.

    Absolutely stunning, Eliza! What a beauty, I love owls! Lovely capture, was it in the wild?!

      Thank you, Julie. This was taken at a rehab center, where sadly his injuries do not allow release back to the wild. But life is worry-free and he is well cared for.

  35. Great photo Eliza. Im longing to see one close up around here. I here them every evenning and sometimes early morning but apart from one flying across nearby, I havent yet seen one close enough to take a photo. Hopefully it may happen one day.
