Amazing Captures!!! Absolutely Stunning!!!
7mm PRC soon to be the most popular cartridge in North America
I wonder if that eagle is going for an owl lunch with a mouse appetizer.
I watched a golden eagle and a smaller raptor play cat and mouse from high on a cliffside once. They started above me and finished way below me, that eagle was either mad or hungry but the smaller bird kept managing to dodge him. They make a very interesting whooshing sound when they dive.
Is Justin Competent, or just incompetent?

Interesting. Very cool photos.
Owls NEVER seem fussed. Definitely my favourite bird.

Fantastic and exceptionally clear photos!
The best time of year to go after owl pictures is after all the deciduous leaves have left the trees
and you can find solitary coniferous trees, or if you find solitary coniferous trees in the middle of
a small logging slash that hasn't re-grown too much. We used to have great success finding all
manner of owls when we were young. The birds use those solitary trees as resting or sleeping
sites during the day. All you need to do is check under the trees for a healthy amount of bird
droppings and you'll usually find an owl above them. Quite often the birds, especially the big ones,
will stay put allowing someone to climb up close for quite close pictures.
Awesome shots. He is definitely getting some great pics in the field. I've had the privilege of viewing a few others in his collection. Some good stories to go along with some of them too.
