Was out chasing owls again this morning and even though there was a disturbing sequence of events, I just happened to be buzzed by Sally, again.
Either I smell like a vole or else look like a vole. Neither is overly appealing but if it gets them close, so be it.:):):):):):)

You could publish a book - "How to photograph owls" you are so good at this. Only #1 is showing for me 2 and 3 are red Xs.

Do you find small children are frightened of you - might give you a hint about the vole smell/look. :)

Lovely shot, Ian (only see the one). Admit it ... you've been bringing her snacks. She's going to follow you home soon ...

Edit: Oooh ... I just read your other thread. Sorry to accuse you of baiting, Ian - even jokingly (and I was joking). :oops:

Compared to some of the things owls actually eat, you probably don't look that tasty. It has to be the smell. (poutine on your breath?)

Click on the "Quote" button on your first message in this thread. You did enter three URLs, all for the same picture. The last two are invalid, though.

Great shot, by the way! You should start hiring yourself out as a photo guide. :D
