A couple of weeks ago a work colleague alerted me to an owl's nest in her backyard. Of course I paid a couple of visits. It turned out to be Great Horned Owls. On the second visit one of the two owlets had fledged the nest and was posing nicely no more than four feet off the ground on a neighbour's fence. The metal wiring behind and dry vines at right are what they are, but I still love the image and the owl's cuteness factor! I did put on the longer lens after this for isolated close-ups without the wiring showing.
