Excellent shots. You got more owls than I've seen in 40 years.

Hi canonloader, these were taken at a Raptor Photoshoot that was held at a Park in Vienna Virginia over the weekend. There is a conservation group that takes care of injured raptors in the DC area and they display them once a year to raise money for the rescue center. Great cause...great photo-op! I plan on posting the hawks and falcons tommorow...only had enough time this morning to do a quick process on these.

Great job -- if you hadn't said where you were shooting, I certainly wouldn't have known these were in captivity.
