Short Eared Owl

I have been observing and photographing this owl for a number of weeks now and feel that I know him quite well. This picture was taken late one afternoon when the light was low.

Thanks for looking and comments welcome.

D300, 500mm, f4.5, ISO800, 1/250 sec.

Love it. Just the right amount of motion blur in the wings. What a handsome bird.
