Northern Hawk-Owl (Surnia ulula)

This owl hung around for a week in the Columbia Basin of central Washington, allowing many people to make the trip out and see it. We pulled up and somebody already had their lens pointed at it, not twenty-five feet off the road. Fantastic!

Michael.. ohhh. That's gorgeous. What a setting and pose. Great exposure. I had a digiscoped shot of our third ever confirmed one in Oregon published in ABA's Rare Birds Journal NW Edition few yrs. ago. They might like to run your fantastic shot.
