First Appearance

This was the female's first appearance for me to photograph her looking out the cavity. That was my first time seeing her this season. Shot from a distance away on the roof top, eye level.
1Dx, 600mm II, 1/200, f/13, ISO250, dual flashes, Manual.

Hi Troy, excellent use of flash - very subtle. Great eye contact and love the ear tuffs.

I like the eye contact, IQ, composition and colour of the bark compliments the owl well. Excellent image Troy!

The raised tufts really makes this one work.

This was the first night I photographing this nest. It took her a while to appear and she had her tufts raised at first and then she just kept looking out of the nest for a while.
