Not a bad effort i like it ....... with a bit more practice they should be really good

Well done for having a go yourself,you get some much more out of it when you put the time and effort into it.

Thanks for commenting Den and Pinkbikerbabe, i am putting a lot of hours in at the mo, 3 hours+ most evenings, i am trying to work on the softness of my photos as i have plenty of time to sit and experiment but i just cant seem to get it right :bonk:

Just enjoy what you are doing some people pay good money to get that close to little owls.

Thankyou Den, i do spend more time watching than taking photos, they are fascinating, i guess i've got hung up on the photo side of things :bonk:

On a side note while watching the Owlet over the weekend i saw it bring up some fluid, like it was being sick, it looked clear from where i was, have you seen that before?

Looking at the exif I think I would up the shutter speed to around 1/1000 and see if they come out better, if not then keep increasing it until they're nice and sharp.
