    Singing House Finches and a Great Horned Owl Family

    I had an amazing day in southern British Columbia as I got to film many singing house finches and then saw a mama great horned owl and her 3 fledged, but still fluffy, owlets. A telephoto lens was used and I was able to observe the family for an entire morning resting in the same tree.
