This was the best of a number of fuzzy photos. I was driving on a secondary highway south of Consort, Alberta on February 20, 2017 and hit the brakes when I noticed the owl on top of a pole. I got a few photos at the extreme range of my lens before the owl got annoyed with my presence and flew off.
Cool, I had one cross in front of my windshield a few months back.. scared the shit out of me. :)
ReplyDeleteIt was pitch dark and all of a sudden he crossed just in front of the car so the headlights lit him up.
Great picture, BW. Well done!
ReplyDeleteWonderful, wonderful, WONDERFUL!
ReplyDeleteGreat photo. I had a great horned owl pair nest in a tree next to the bunkhouse, fun to watch the babies mature and finally take flight.
