Barred Owl. Incredible how they blend with their environment.

Very nice!
 
Beautiful
 
I like the owl's camo, and the hawk's sentry guard stance and look that says, "You don't want to mess with me!"
 
Gorgeous shots! I like how that owl camouflaged in the tree. What is the working distance for these shots? I am planning on getting 55-210 too and couple it with Olympus TC.

Doing some back-digging in the forum as I've been away for vacation for 5 days and playing catchup since, so I missed some photo threads. When I saw birds on page two, I knew I had to look! ;)

Love that owl shot - really shows the camo well with the tree right behind him - an example of where subject isolation might not have told that part of the story. The hawk on the other hand does well with the isolation - looking suitably serious as hawks always do!

Nice work.
 
Great to see Lee, got some nice poses there and that Owl is a gorgeous one. Very well done and good to see that combination at work. Keep them coming.

All the best Lee, love them and hope to see more when you can.

I think these pictures would look much better with minus green dominance, and a lesser contrast. There is something strange in the colors, IMHO.

Thanks. I would guess about 60 feet/18 meters. They were taken through a window. Lee
