I bought the Nikon D500 a few months ago and took it over to Cape Coral for it's first test shooting the owls. Thought I would share a few of the results. I get this perspective by laying down in the grass. These were captured near the Public Library for those folks visiting or here in Florida. The new born chicks are still deep in the burrows. I did capture one chick still all pin feathered peaking out of the burrow.
I should note the first three shoots were taken in the late afternoon as the sun was getting low. Much better lighting I think than the morning hrs.

Wonderful shots. I like the sleepy head in the first shot.

Excellent..If I drove over from Clermont, would someone at the library be able to point me in the right direction? Have never seen this owl, a photo would make my year! if it was even close to your quality..

Really neat shots. The perspective is perfect and you nailed the appearance of a chick. Good set.

Hey Jerry, the nest are located all around the outside property boundaries.. You can't miss them they are marked with short white poles. Just make sure you visit the Public Library as there are several other small libraries in Cape Carol. Use Public Library for your Google directions..
