A Burrowing Owl

By MikeRC
Hello again...this is another from the falconry centre in Cheshire.
This was again taken with the FZ30 and once again I wonder why I spent money on an SLR and lenses.

I think it's a burrowing owl, native to Canada and South America.

I'm quite pleased with this, It was shot through wire mesh and it's straight out of the camera so the light must have been favourable to me.
I hope you like it.

Once again...many thanks for your clicks and kind comments on my previous pictures.

.....Mike

I like the typical 'quizzical' pose, and the detail here is super.

Lovely capture Mike, a good close up shot and the eye contact works well.

Likewise do I make that same consideration, I simply love my FZ30 and it performs so well. Glad to find another on the same wavelength.

Rgds,
Joe
