I was lucky enough to have this one 20 feet away. Cropped to 50 % of original, sharpened and adjusted contrast. Thanks for looking and commenting.

Nice detail captured here Michael. I like the bg as well. Did you happen to shoot this vertically as well. Love the eyes. Well done.

Todd, I did get both Horizontal and vertical. I had to get real close to take some grass out of play. He was shot roadside from my truck.
Fantastic detail in this portrait. The eyes are wonderful - I like the way the bird is looking off into the distance. The BG is a bit busy for my taste; the white streaks (which I assume are OOF distant branches/foliage) are a distraction. Still, an excellent shot.

Lovely image ! Love the look on the owl's face !
Michael, I like the composition and I'd be tempted to take a small sliver off the top to equal the space on the left side if it were mine. I like the pose and the BG fades away nicely. Great capture!:S3:
