Found my friend out this morning and it was in a very low position, for a fairly decent shot. Just couldn't get that "v" limb out from in front of it's face. Looks like today was an owl day for several 365 er's. Looks better on black if you have the time.
What a neat looking owl - love the lighting and color in the tree. That's where I love my photoshop - use the lasso and edit it out - most times I can get it.
@milaniet@waterfowler Thanks Milanie and Rick. Yeah, Milanie, I thought about that after I had already posted it, and mentioned it to my wife. Oh well, next time.
