Barred owl - 2 in one day + first flight shots Jan 25, 2011
Janice and I took off up towards Lindsay and area. Weather was not great but we survived and totally enjoyed the day. Thanks to Dan who gave us some tips on where to go. This beautiful Barred Owl was my second of the day. I was thrilled to see him. He was on a back road and there was no place to stop. I told Janice to let me out. I got out of the car and she continued on (torn because she wanted to see him also) I waved bye bye and enjoyed watching the owl. Eventually Janice joined me but he was quick to leave to the back of the woodlot. What a thrill and what a friend to let me have the honour.
This is the start of the take off.
