Nice comp, Jeff! I wish I could just find one alongside one of my roads. :D
What a find Jeff !!!
I like the soft light and bg !! All I can say is I wish it was mine !!!
For me, one of the prettiest birds. It is very photogenic too. Great photo.
Great portrait, with intense eye contact and clean warm BG. Congratulations :)
You guys are so lucky to have these wonderful looking owls in your part of the world. Superb eye contact, and very wll exposed Jeff. Great capture.
Are those traces of blood on the plumage? Very cool! Speaking of "cool", I find the blue cast on the bird should be toned down. In this case I simply used saturation and reduced the blue channel by 65 points.

Congrats, Jeff. Love the remnants of his recent meal. I hope he hangs around for you!
