Superb Owl Sunday III

A special Sunday event, a photographic essay celebrating a few of these magnificent birds of prey. These nocturnal hunters hail from Europe, Asia, North and South America, captured here in photos taken over the past few years. If you have some time today before the big game (or are skipping the event entirely) I invite you to have a look, it was a real hoot putting this together.

I love Owls, have a couple GH ones living near my house...in the summer I stargaze and hoot back & forth w/them

I enjoyed this so much I even did the feedback page and told them so!
