Took these today while looking for the female on a nest. Never did see the female but I'm positive she's there somewhere.

Wonderful.

I have got to return to my owl(s), 30 mins away, and see if I can get something close to matching these.

Brilliant!

Thanks! I really wish when I bring my tripod and gimbal head he would sit there. Must scare him as he flies away. These were taken handheld.
