Richard
Award for dedication and work for these, and I suppose the photo lol
you will get the bug now just like me, really pleased you got your image of a beautiful bird to see and capture
Superb Sylvia, You said you would get it... And you have spot on !
Thank you so much everybody for your kind comments and votes and a special THANK YOU to Richard (MossyOak) and Graham (Gray-ina) for the User Awards - really appreciated and valued. Yes Karen (kaz10), I think I have definitely caught the bug now - sat out for over 2 hours this evening but he didn't show! Ah well - there's always tomorrow
Sylvia
A stunning capture, Sylvia, beautiful light and congrats on a first and for the awards.
Steve.
a superb shot against a stunning bg,it really punches out the detail Sylvia
A fabulous inflight capture Sylvia, you must be chuffed to bits to catch the silent hunter on camera. Many people have never even seen a barnowl in the wild
