Backyard barred owl - repeat visit
May 6, 2022 08:34:14 #
Fourth time in the last 6 months, 2nd time in the last 2 weeks.
Quite the 'regular' now. My neighbor and I are hoping that (s)he moves in. Then, we have to spend less time chasing rabbits away from the flowers.
Same owl, both pics taken in a 30-minute interval as it moved from one tree to another. The second shot was taken after sunset, so the brownish hue.
Comments and critiques welcome.

Great shots. I have yet to get a picture of an owl in the wild.
Thank you, Jerry, for viewing and commenting.
I guess wild life sightings are like real estate - location, location, location?

Excellent images, Ronnie. Keep capturing them.
Thank you very much, Elliot.
I think the Z9 can cast a wider 'capture net'.
But for at-rest subjects, the older Nikon equipment works pretty good.
