    I'd like a touch more space above but everything else looks great. Never been to Marco Island... do they have as many Burrowing Owls as Cape Coral? Thanks for sharing.

    This one rocks Joe! Details look great and the combination of those eyes and that stare are great. Next time I'm in Florida I really want a chance at photographing these guys.

    Hi Joe, great detail on the face, and you couldnt have called this anything else with a stare like that. The feather detail looks good.

    Nice details in the irises Joe and I like the way the body is twisted slightly to the left (bird's left that is ).

    Hi Joe - Those intense eyes jump out even of the small thumbnail. Nice details and sharpness.

    TFS,
    Rachel
