Barn Owl & new blog (6)

[Liam]

In an undisclosed place in west Sussex I found this guy, he was busy hunting for a good 2 hours. It even started hailing which gave some nice effects. I am hoping to photograph him for the rest of the week. Thanks for any comments

Very nice captures Liam ... ... you were, indeed very fortunate to have such stunning views over an extended period ...

Lovely captures of a stunning bird. If I was near your neck of the woods, I'd be pestering to accompany you watching him quarter the fields. Really like the first one

Sorry, I think this is actually a female. Thanks for all the comments.

What makes you think it's a female?

cheers

Well I know that the male is normally whiter than the female, and there was another barn owl there which was whiter. So I am assuming that this is a female but it could be that I am wrong.

Having read some articles I think I was originally right and that it is a male.

Nice set. They look slightly over exposed to me. Think I'd be tempted to try and dial in some compensation next time. Good luck!
