Burrowing Owl

[John Blumenkamp]

Found this little guy this afternoon out at Antelope Island State Park in northern Utah, and was happy to get my first images of this species...

7D @ 700mm
1/1250 f/8 iso400

C&C always appreciated.

Thanks for looking,
John

That is one cute fellow with a typical pose :)
If you can, I'd selective lighten the eye in the shadow a couple of notches.
Although I normally like darker borders, the OOF vignette works very well IMO.

Nice soft textures in the plumage and habitat. The eye stands out well as a focal point. Light angle was a challenge.
