About Thats the way I felt today after being couped up for a week Ill. I had a couple hours to kill so I drove north of Duluth where an Owl invasion has been reported. Canada is getting really low on feed (Moles , Mice) and for that reason we have had a major influx of mostly Great Grey owls. WCCO TV told me monday to get the data from thier web site.
Was I suprised to find out the hot spot was out in the country right where I grew up ! As I turned down the Old Dirt road I saw this little guy high up in a tree. This is a Hawk Owl.
He had been perched on the stick to the left and I caught him just as he left the perch.

Jim, I'm dribbling down the sides of my chin. Not only do you see an owl, not only do you photograpk an owl - you get one in flight and in such a magnificent way. One tremendous shot Jim. Gotta fav this!!

Thank you for your kind comments on my photos today. This weekend was my first full weekend out with my new camera and lens. Wow I am stating to really love it , now that I am getting used to how to set it up ;-) Its a bit different than the D70 which still travels with me for landscapes etc.
Now to the real reason for writing, how is my friend Denny doing ? haven't heard from him and recall he was having some difficulty ??

got the flowers !! Warmed me right up. As far as getting good with the new lens, an old Navy buddie of mine once told me when I was getting out of line, "Jimmy, even a blind hog finds an acorn once in awhile" I adopted that as my personal mantra !!

Glad that you are up and about. I just sent you a bunch of flowers, maybe a little late but better late than never. This is a great capture. It shows so much detail in the great wingspread.. Your getting pretty handy with that new lens. Don.

Jim, what a beautiful composition. First, you are using the same equipments that I used in my latest posting except the brand Sigma/Canon. Secondly, capturing a fast object using such a heavy lens means that we are talking about a professional photographer and it shows.

Best regards,

Khalid
