Thanks Mr. Goodwin! Me and my dad were so surprised when we realized it was an owl (it was fairly far away when we first found it and it wasn't until I zoomed in that I realized it was an owl). :D
The barred owl was also my daughter's first wild owl. Your photos are wonderful for the lack of light available. Great job!
Stunning pictures Jack. Well done.
