Barn Owl on a fence for HFF

Barn Owl on a fence for HFF
Barn Owl on a fence in the overcast gloom of this evening - one of three from the Owl box - all for HFF to you all!
Tried a few shots last night with a longer lens, but the very low light level (darkness!) defeated me. So tonight tried the 70 - 200mm and at least got something!

Perseverance paid off Roger, the longer lenses do seem to want a lot of light.

Thanks Rosa and to everyone else too; I am very belatedly catching up on last Friday, failed this week altogether; the owls have been very busy since leaving the nest, keeping my son-in-law awake most nights. Their favourite tree is about 20 metres from the house! As far as we can tell there are three healthy youngsters that have fledged/

A lovely shot Roger. You did well to get this in the low light. I love owls - they are such beautiful birds. I have never been close enough to one to get a photo though. HFF and have a great weekend

Thanks Carol, they seem to be thriving this year and luckily have taken up residence in the owl box we put up in my daughter's garden a few years back. Hopefully they will continue to use it in future years.
