Way, way up
This photo was taken back on 11 January 2015, when I called in at Fish Creek Park again for some fresh air and, hopefully, to see a friend or two. I was lucky with both. It was a Sunday and a lot of photographers had gathered to watch and photograph this tiny, popcan-sized Northern Pygmy-owl.
I was impressed that all the photographers were very respectful of this tiny owl (at least on that day). Mind you, apart from a couple of very brief, low landings in bushes, it stayed perched extremely high in tall trees. Thankfully, it was still within my camera reach and we were all lucky enough to see it perched in a variety of places. Bright blue sky completed the picture, unlike the day before, which had been overcast and gloomy.
It was so good that day to see so many friends again - lifted my spirits, for which I was so grateful. Each day I have been there since, there has been at least one other photographer and as many as maybe 30 on the very occasional day. My thanks to each and every one of them.
