My first date with the Great grey owl

Earlier this year, I received reports that three owls had taken up residence near my home so I packed the camera gear and headed directly to this place.

When we arrived there were many cars that had parked in a field in order to get as close to the owls as possible. I got a tip about the location and went there to take pictures during the works.

One owl was very brave and focused on their hunt for food so I took the chance for some great pictures and here is the results:

The owl was very relaxed, we were 20 persons that was there
Thanks!

Incredible shots. I have never seen a wild owl during the day time.

Like the first one best, these are such beautiful birds I prefer to see more than just head shots IMO.

You *should* be proud; you captured some fantastic images there...nicely done, and thanks for sharing them!
