You guys are so lucky to have these wonderful looking owls in your part of the world. Superb eye contact, and very wll exposed Jeff. Great capture.

Are those traces of blood on the plumage? Very cool! Speaking of "cool", I find the blue cast on the bird should be toned down. In this case I simply used saturation and reduced the blue channel by 65 points.
