Perhaps my favorite of all owls. Big and such an expressive face. I have a large print in a corner of my house of this owl.

Where did you see it?

This is a Ural Owl, from the Baltic’s. He is part of a breeding program in SC. The largest raptor center in US is outside Charleston. Rescue and breeding. A few times a year a group of photographers is invited. An amazing place, the birds will fly loose, falcons and kites hunt. This is where I learned to shoot high speed raptors diving, etc. I can’t begin to tell you how many shots of a blank blue sky I photographed LOL.

Wow! Sounds like an amazing opportunity for photographers… A birder’s dream🦉

It is. The morning is spent first working with raptors, the rest of the day is with Owls. When the Kites work they hunt food in the air, and then torture everyone by flying around in great circles until tired. They come back, only when they are ready LOL

I imagine you and the others involved in this project must be learning a tremendous amount about raptors. What a worthwhile endeavor.

This is amazing shot of the owl. I love photography, but I am not that good at it 😬. How long have to been doing photography?
Thank you. A (large) number of years ago it was what I wanted for a career. Ha! Food was more important though. Did it part time, until around 4 years ago moved to coastal Lowcountry (Charleston SC) and shoot full time nature work. Subtropics with wildlife and nature everywhere. Some days I feel I’m on safari LOL.
That’s really nice! I don’t work with photography; but I have a great eye for photography and you did a great job. That link you sent me, is that your work?

Thanks so much. Yes, that is one of a few pages of highlights on my site. Besides the highlights there are 5,000 articles/posts I have published. Thanks again.

That’s very nice pictures on the websites! I have a video that talks about the owl’s wings and how they function. May I share it with you?

Thank you for taking your time to watch the video! And thank you for showing some of your work! The makers of this video make videos and articles about animals often. Would you be interested in me send you videos and articles biweekly or so?

Thanks, but no. Way too much media in my life, may hide under a rock soon 😂😂
