I was shown this roosting spot today. I have always wanted to see owls in the wild where I could photograph them. There were 5 in this tree. I would never have seen them if I weren't shown where they were.

Nice job! Those guys are can be tough to find. They do like to communal roost though as evidenced by one of your shots. Sometimes over 30 in one area.

Thanks... Was really neat to see... They were not even phased by the dogs... Thank goodness it's in a white pine... I will see if I can go again when they aren't backlit... That means early morning...
