You lucky ........
Ive never seen a long eared owl.
You got it and owlets. Cool set.

Thanks Jeremy. I saw this LEO as my first this year. Luckily it was found at the nest also.

Wow John did you get in the nest with them? Nice.

LOL, close I was about 25 feet away. Thanks Craig.

Nice shots. Even knowing where to look, I have a tough time finding any type of owls during the day, and you got a fairly rare one.

Thank you. I agree. You need to know exactly where to look and some luck to find them.

They are in a deep thicket of willows and are about 8 to 10 feet above a creek that the nest is over. She was staring at me intensely. The trail is higher up so I was actually aiming down about a foot or so.
