I thought this was a pretty cool pose from this little Owl.

Jody, you are right - this is a really cool pose. I don't think I have ever seen an image like this. I would like to see what a vertical crop would look like.

Amazing pose, with extraordinary detail in the plumage. I love the little fat feet :)

Very well done

I really like the headon approach in this, together with the great eye contact. This is also super sharp too. Well captured Jody.
