If people would learn how to set their cameras for the available light there would be no need for all that PP. "Understanding Exposure" is a good starter. Sunlight is not your friend unless its early morning. Practice, practice and more practice.

Wonderful! I've wanted to capture owl shots and never been able to find one in the wild.

I have found many different species in the wild. You have to know where to look. Not all sit on fence posts waiting for you. An owl is not that scared. They cannot turn their eye balls but they can turn their heads over 180ยบ. Wait until they turn their head then you can walk a step or two closer. If they are looking at you don't blink or breath. When you drop over dead that will scare them I think.Wonderful! I've wanted to capture owl shots and never been able to find one in the wild.

Were they alive or taxidermized.
You may be right after all they were taken in a raptor center.

They were all alive, set up for photographers to shoot pictures of.
Anyone can shoot birds and animals in captivity. Now go out and find them in the wild and see how much time you have to get that special pose or even get a shot. You better have your camera settings set before you find any bird. Owls are not that scared of humans unless you startle them.
