This shot is insane Walker. Perch has such character, the owl is looking at our souls! Perfect background. As discussed I would add a bit more blacks and depth to the shot as it looks a touch thin because of the flash. It is easy to find a roosting owl during the day and get a picture. It is an entirely different thing to get a shot like this at night. Anyone who has ever tried knows how difficult this is to pull off. Awesome job man.

This might be my favorite of your night owl images. The perch looks like a sculpture.

Love the pose on the owl and those eyes. Nice perch and background.

Very nice shot indeed Walker, I am very impressed from tail to neck. Moving upwards, I like the mid tones and highlights in the head but most of the black feathers look jet black especially in the "ears" - I know a little picky but otherwise brilliant.

Excellent image Walker! Great IQ, eye contact, BG and perch. A wall hanger for sure!

This is my favorite of your owls' Walker.
Love, love the perch (i might be tempted to clone out the tiny bit of whitewash on the perch to make it perfect!)
I would add a point of blacks ,excluding the ears as the tip is black already and is almost lost against the BG.
