Short-eared Owls and Northern Harriers

Been stucked at work fo several days, finally I had some free time to go outside. I have been seeing a lot of very nice shots of the short-eared owls that really inspired me. Unfortunately I did not get a shot with these raptors with a prey, hopefully someday I will.


#1 [7D (1/800) f/7.1 400 mm ISO 3200]

Wow Jo, those are just beautiful especially the Owl on the stump, fantastic really, Well done!

WOW... the owl pictures are great...... nothing wrong with the harriers either..... good stuff..

EXCELLENT shots, Jo, love the owl on the stump, LOVE the harriers!

Wonderful shots Jo, love them all... but those owl shots in the open like this are "foreign" to me up here in the deep woods ... great work.

You have outdone yourself here, Jo, these are wonderful. I'm particularly envious of the short eared owl shots.

Excellent stuff. Makes me miss Vancouver.

Wow, what an amazing set of images, Jo. Especially the first three shots -the owl on the stump- are fantastic. This is really great work, my friend.

Great stuff there, Jo! Really like the "shake" shot

great stuff!! and masterly well done

Great set of pictures especially the Owl shots! Beautiful detail at iso 3200...!

A very impressive set Jo,

Not only do we never see either of these magnificent species here, but the high ISO quality and shutter speeds of your 7d truly amaze me. I must assume that with 400mm these are also significantly cropped... Great work by both the photographer and the camera I say.

Excellent post,

Kenn

Where in Van are you finding these Jo?!?!?!!? Outstanding each one, but those owls,

Great Shots.

You've been hitting them out of the ball park, Jo. Amazing images and PP. Boundary Bay?
