Someone’s Watching

Fortunate to locate a family of Great Horned Owls this year…it’s been a while.
For the most part the owlets are relatively easy to locate. Adults on the other hand can be a little more difficult.
They tend not to go into defense mode or become vocal if a human is near…unlike members of the Hawk Family.

They have amazing eye sight and will spot you long before you would spot them. It can be an eerie feeling to look over your shoulder and see a Great Horned glaring down at you.

It hadn’t been till well after photographing the owlets that I noticed that someone watching me.

Cheers !
