owl

We have been lucky ..found a day roost of a Long- eared. It seldom opens its eyes to look at us.

One from yesterday, Friday 13th which turned out lucky for me! Anyone visiting this site should respect the birds and other photographers by keeping out of the fields. If you really have to walk around it, please keep walking - these birds need to feed.

Right place at the right time.

This family of Barn owls lives close to a place close to Bangalore, India. A friend of mine invited to me come and shoot these wonderful creatures of urban night life. I reached this place with my equipment and a Torch. And very punctually this family started to show up in their regular place...

This SEO was being constantly mobbed by a Desert Wheatear. We were watching this interesting activity from our Jeep. Finally the Wheatear decided to leave the owl. SEO was resting at one place. I slowly got down from the jeep and lied flat on by belly on the desert with my Lens. I told my jeep...

Not a good photo, but it was the best I could do with the equipment and the distance that this little bird was.

Hope these owl shots are not getting repetitive but here is one more. Not a close up but a nice all around owl/habitat/scenery shot.

Got this little one last night in my back yard. Beautiful Bird!

Here is my first picture on birdforum. (Maria) A Short eared Owl Taken at Worlaby

I heard a rumor that there was a snowy owl spotted about 15 miles away from where I live. Not normally seen in the central part of Indiana, I decided to check it out.

Another shot of these infrequent visitors to the Lower mainland. The weather in the north must be quite severe to have these appearing in such large numbers locally.

Taken at Worlaby North Lincolnshire on Friday 2nd December 2011.

The snowy owls have returned to the Lower mainland for the first time in 4 years and in numbers that are quite amazing.These handsome raptors attracted large numbers of photographers and birders to witness the spectacle.
