Excellent capture of a nice specimen. That stare is piercing. Good work.

Good looking specimen. Might be a little dark, but good overall detail, with a natural background.

Lovely owl and colors. Always nice to see a familiar face in distant lands.

I agree with Claude the eyes are so sharp they are piercing. Good capture!

Very nice, Suzanne. Nice position in the frame, and the eyes are great!

I like this one, Suzanne. He looks mad about something. A good pose and well a executed shot.
