Some friends and I were driving down a country road today when the driver stopped and pointed out an owl in a tree. I happened to have my camera in my purse so I took a few pictures. After a minute or two it flew to another tree. In the other tree was another owl that flew away. So I took a couple more pictures of the first owl. Isn't it huge? The other one was a similiar size.
Great photos!
I love owls. You've captured him quite well on these photos.

Those photos are absolutely perfect! The owl is one of my totems and years ago I collected owl figurines until it got out of control. Thank you for sharing the pix. What a great photo op for you.
Blessings, Mary
"Time and unforeseen occurrence befall us all." Ecclesiastes 9:11
There are two great horned owls living in a big abandoned building in my town. Sometimes they sit in trees on opposite sides of my house and hoot back and forth to each other. When we have the windows open, it is very loud and strange!
They are HUGE. One night one swooped down in front of my car while I was driving home. I swear, its wingspan was a wide as my car! Scared me to death!
No pictures of them, but I attached a picture of their home.

Wow! The first picture looks to me almost like a picture or sculpture of an owl. What an interesting face. These are such neat pictures! I'm glad you had your camera with you!
