We returned home yesterday and I have not downloaded all my photos, but I thought that these shots I took during a lecture by LowcountryRaptors.org would be a good start. All these birds are rescues and unable to return to the wild. This great organization visits various resorts on Hilton Head Island. The presenter allowed me to move around the room during the lecture so long as I did not use a flash.

The owls included a burrowing owl, screech owl and great horned owl. The hawk is a small one she identified as a broad wing hawk.

The eye focus worked and you can see my reflection in some of the eyes. I liked the nictating membrane shot of the GHO.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Beautifully done, Mike. Sorry to see that eye injuries are prevalent in the owl family.
