Owls

Went out last week and came across a nest of owls in Edmonton - I got a couple of good shots of them:

My shots of the mother owl didn't turn out as well as I'd have liked, I'll have to go back when the sun is in a better spot.

Good find. I hope you can get some more captures in betterlight.

I went back this weekend and got some more shots - the light was a bit better this time, and the owlets have grown a lot.
