Great Horned Owl (Page 3): Ah, sleepy time! Great shot. That seems how it happens. It's a wonderful feeling when it just falls into place. Glad you were persistent! :sm01: :sm24:...

For the past 6 months or so there has been a pair of Great Horned Owls living in a large Eucalyptus Tree in my neighbor's backyard. I have spent hours looking for them to no avail. This afternoon in a drizzling rain this guy/gal sat on an exposed branch for 20 minutes. I got maybe 20 shots all identical since it didn't move.
