I’ve been absolutely loving my time observing not just the Short-eared Owls but also getting to know the local Barn Owls. The day before I captured this shot of the perched Barn Owl, something incredible happened—Amy and I had a Short-eared Owl land on the exact same post! It was such a surprise, as it flew up from a ditch below eye level, and honestly, I was so stunned that I missed the chance to take any photos. The Short-eared Owl didn’t stick around long enough for me to recover from the excitement!
This time, though, I was ready. When the Barn Owl appeared, I stayed calm and focused, and thankfully, I managed to snap some great shots. I particularly love how the grass in front of the post adds a natural frame to the image, giving it a bit of extra depth and character. It’s these little details that make wildlife photography so rewarding.
