Barred owl, Big Cyprus Trail, Florida

Super shot Dave. I've had a breeding pair nesting within ear shot of the house for over 5 years maybe longer and they have never given me anything like this. very jealous.

Awesome!

Thanks Ed and Jeff !
I had been looking for a Barred for a long time. My wife and I had hiked the usual spots in South Florida with no luck. On this day, we had given up hope and had turned around to go back. I stopped because I saw a Painted Bunting and Laura heard a noise from the area we had just been. She went back to check it out, and there was the owl ! We just sat and watched for a couple hours and came away with that high that all you know, when you get an opportunity to see wildlife like this.
