Here is another Short Eared Owl image from last weekends session.

Having spent a couple of months now trying to photograph these wild Owls, the elements finally came together. Personally speaking, I feel that this image is my best Short Eared Owl picture to date. On this particular day there was little or no wind so the Owl was quite likely to be out hunting. The low winter sun was shining which helped me to get some light under the wings. By positioning myself carefully in the field, I was able to include complimentary tones in the background and when the Owl flew towards the sun, I took this picture, which lit up his eyes.

It doesn't happen very often in nature photography but when the elements do all combine together it makes the two months of preparation seem all worthwhile.
