Barn Owl
One from the land fill site,I have added a bit to the top and RHS as it was the full frame but it needed a bit of space. Then I cropped it back to the fullframe size.

The Owl came so close (3 feet) I could have touched it.

Absolutely stunning. Totally different style to the more usual 'flying in habitat' owl images and as a 'close-up in-flight' shot of a Barn Owl it is one of the best I have seen.
