I love owls! :)

This one is common to our area and is called a Barking Owl.

Most excellent!

One of the most difficult and elusive captures is that of the “Barking Spider”. Three cheers to the first to share one with us here.;)

Cool shot. He looks like you almost scared him off his perch.:D

Where'd you find this guy? I looks like a day time shot.

I'm nuts about Owls! Just love them...Always have. Through that bias I believe this is a great Owl shot MA. Thanks for sharing the name "Barking Owl" I've never heard that name before and am now curious as to what the birds sounds like:)
