    Barred owl

    A lifer for me - this male barred owl first arrived at my local wetlands sometime in July, and I was able to photograph it several times behind leaves, branches, and fronds. Finally, after my 4th encounter with him, he was perched very much in the open, just 15 feet away, allowing me to get an...

    I've seen this Barred Owl twice this week while on my morning runs; the second time I was able to call my wife to bring down the kids and camera. She took a series of photos and while I'd liked to have adjusted the settings more, I'll settle for this photo! Hope to keep seeing him in the future!

    Being a parent is hard work. This is one of the parents of the Owlet I posted recently. They came back to my yard for some reason and the parent then settled down for a nap.

    Northern Barred Owl hunting

    I was fortunate enough yesterday to spend 10 minutes observing a Barred Owl hunting. I kept a respectable distance away so as to not stress the bird. It was amazing to see him/she? locate and capture a vole from a distance of 10 to 15m under 25cm of snow. The whole thing only lasted a minute or...

    Barred Owl (Immature) No. 2

    I apologize for the graininess of this picture, but it was taken well after sunset using only natural light. It was very dark, but I could not pass up the opportunity for the shot. It was taken at ISO 1600 f/2.8 at 1/30 of a second using a 300 mm lens hand held. Had to share this one too.

    Barred Owl, mystery prey

    I found this owl at Mahogany Hammock where he was tending to 3 chicks in a big Mahogany tree. He had brought dinner for the chicks; something unrecognizeable and not too appetizing, but then I don't eat sushi, either.

    This morning, I glanced out the window and saw this owl just roosting on a branch about 40 feet from my window. In the 9 years we have lived here in Charlotte, I have never seen a barred owl; hence, I was delighted.
