Little Owl

One from yesterday morning, I found this Little Owl a couple of miles down the road from where I photographed the Snipe in my last post. He allowed me to spend over an hour with him, he was so relaxed, he even nodded off a couple of times :biggrin:

1/500th @ f5.6 iso400 ( Full Frame, Wild Bird )

Thanks for the feedback on my last post and thanks for looking.

There are more shots on the blog for those interested

A first class image just a little different too with the wing stretch which just adds that extra.

Hi Andy, the fanned out wing, look to camera both add to making this a cracking image, might just take a sliver off the top. Excellent work. :toast:
