Burrowing Owl at Cape Coral, Florida. He became a little irritated when Dad decided to move his tripod and showed it by puffing up his chest. Any & all comments welcome!
Love that bg David !!!! Also like the selected crop a bit different from the usual The fluff feathers sure help Only wish a slight head turn!!! Excellent !!
btw not sure he was upset When upset they usually move up and down !!!
I agree that the head angle is wanting--I was mentally pleading with the owl to look my way while he did this, but my powers of inter-species telepathy clearly leave something to be desired! Also, sorry about the slightly neon-yellow/green look to the eyes. I'm (finally) home and looking at this on a calibrated monitor instead of my laptop!!!
