Yeah I'm the 1st to comment on EJs upload. :o)

Your collecting a fine selection of Barred Owls in your gallery now Froggy .. this ones definitely giving you a disapproving look, is there something you wanna share with us ? .. No I can't believe you done that !

Great upload maestro

What? You mean you can't do that. I can. What planet are you from? You must be an earthling. LOL. (I'm not.) Another great owl shot. That think is getting mad at you for disturbing his sleep.

I think the Owl had turtle for lunch. Talk about eyes in the back of your head. This is the next best thing. Great capture and what beautiful creatures you have in your part of the world.

Are things getting back to some sort of normality for you?

Beautiful image of the owl, very sharp and clear. Yes EJ, it would be great asset to have a swivel neck especially when you are being followed :)

Beautiful capture of the owl! Colors are great. I just told my daughter yesterday.... probably one reason older people get in more accidents, they can't turn the neck as far! : )

The owl reminds me of the girl in the "Exorcist" who could spin her head around. This is the last one of these types of comments I swear, but you did ask me to do my best. His feathers blend in so beautifully with the tree and branch..
Very nice shot E.J.

I like the title Ed. Looks like you were spotted - I guess it's hard to sneak up on these things for obvious reasons. Great shot!
