Nice. What strikes me is the wonderful camouflage. The feathers look just like tree bark.

Very nice show of a very nice bird. About the only suggestion I can offer is to take out the double highlight in the eyes.

I'd love more opportunities to shoot owls but I rarely see them. Nice capture and expression

Nice capture Rick...another vote to remove the double catchlight.

I always love owl shots and this is a nice one. Another vote for the catchlight thing although I forget to do those things too.
