Weekend owl watching.

[JayinMN]

Today was a sweet day for for Great Grays. I found 2 on the same road again. I am hoping they become a pair. With the dark overcast day they were out an hour earlier then usual. I also found a new owl to keep tabs on. I got more video then pictures tonight.

Here is a shot from tonight. This owl calls a lot more then the other owl on the same road so I am guessing it is a male. It is also a lot more shy.

And this one will hopefully be his wife. I took this one last weekend. She likes to pose for the camera. How do you like the prop I used for a perch? I liked all the pine cones.

Jay, the wife is a hottie. What more can I say.

As far as I know, you are one of the only people in Minnesota consistently finding any ggo's currently so congrats! Your persistence continues to yield excellent results. I enjoy the size of the owl in the first image, nice environmental feel. The perch on the second image is great and the owls bowtie really pops in the nice soft light.

And another from today. I found this one at 3:00 p.m. which is pretty dang early. It was nice to not have to stick around till dark.

A profile shot.

Great shots of a "great" bird Jay ...keep em coming!

[Jim Almquist]

Good looking shots Jay. Keep a eye on that pair because having young one's in the bog would be sweet.
