This little owlet, and its sibling, gave many local photographers an entertaining time photographing them. I was only able to go a couple of times, but quite fun. On this occasion it was on a fallen tree 4 feet off the ground. Pretty much a perfect opportunity!
Canon 7DII + 500mm f/4 II, manual exposure, evaluative metering, 1/60s., f/4, ISO 1600, natural light, handheld (lens barrel braced on another large tree trunk for added stability), full-frame, a couple of small highlights in the BG filled-in via cloning.
