Eagle Owl by 30pics4jackiesdiamond

Eagle Owl

Native to Africa, tonight in Hampshire, UK where he was part of an owl by torchlight show.

Pushed new camera to its limits tonight!

Spectacular!

Stunning on black! How fortunate to see it and get such a magnificent shot! It only takes one according to your tag.

He looks a little surprised. Maybe he wasn't expecting to end up in Hampshire!

Thank you all. It was a great evening and the owls at night with torchlight was so magical. I think @will_wooderson they're trained to cope with the torches

Jackie - I did get the get pushed challenge up and running for Derrick. Poor guy - he needs some encouragement so I also dropped him a note to ask him to continue.
I told him that it is up to him to count the votes and announce the winner. I will be on the road and traveling for the next month or so so may not be able to make sure he is able to do it.
I will be able to do the Weekly SH*T list all the time though, just not this on the weekend.
Could you ensure that it is done, please?
Thank you and have a great day!!

Thank you for offering to do the SH*T list. We are leaving Thursday so I have it done before we leave this week.
I will tag you if I need it done next week.
I think that Derrick is quite a bit older and not familiar with internet protocol so I think he can be forgiven for his lack of knowledge and courtesy.
Oh well ....
And as for voting - he did ask (but I think it was after he voted) and I told him not to.
Again .... oh, well!!

@farmreporter Wendy, I've made a start on this week's, so leave it to me, so you can pack etc!! I'll do next week too if needs be

Yeah Ive had a grot day and took it out on poor Derrick via you! Sorry 😐

About manners - I find that most men do not appreciate (or notice) gestures like this the way we women do. I think it comes from a lifetime of women picking up after them ... starting with mothers and going on to their wives.
I think most men just take it for granted that it is done for them and do not even notice that it was done. I find this particularly in older men whereas the younger ones tend to help out and therefore notice when things are done for them.

@farmreporter also I think he was panicking which I identify with.

Can I clarify- am I postingTomorrow's SH T list??
February 23rd, 2022  
@30pics4jackiesdiamond
Yes, you can, And thank you very much!
Much appreciated!
February 23rd, 2022  
@farmreporter safe journey!!
February 23rd, 2022  
I sometimes get so overwhelmed at the sheer vastness of Canada. It takes 24 hours of straight driving to get out of Ontario alone - east to West!
We made it halfway. From Glen Robertson to Sault Ste. Marie which is on the Great Lakes between Lake Huron and Lake Superior.
We plan on getting to Dryden tomorrow night, Regina (Saskatchewan) on Saturday night and on to Calgary (Alberta) on Sunday.
Will try to send you a good email tomorrow night.

@farmreporter will get atlas out to see where in the world you are!!!

Thank you, Jackie for doing the Weekly SH*T list last week. The old laptop computer I am using on this trip is VERY slow and I will be lucky to post a photo a day with it!
So - yes - I would appreciate it if you could do the Weekly SH*T list for the whole time I am gone. I will be back around March 23rd.

The trip from our place in Glen Robertson (south east of Ottawa and east of Cornwall near the St. Lawrence River) to Calgary is 40 hours of driving ... not including the stops to get gas and let the dogs out.
This is a vast and wonderful country.
We are heading up to Grand Prairie today weather permitting, It is snowing hard at the moment so we may wait a day for safer driving.
I'm not sure if you have hauled out the atlas so I am keeping you posted on our itinerary.
