Eastern Screech owl, Horizontal 1.
Another try today to see if this sweet bird was awake, and some luck.
It was calling to its neighbour, about 75 yards (68.58 metres) away. We didn't see the second bird, but maybe another try and hopefully some more luck.
So this is the singing pose. It will stretch its neck up, and give out a very cute call. You can hear it on many YouTube videos. I hope to catch it on my gear some evening.
From where we were standing, this bird is 30 yards (27.43 metres) away from us. Using the crop sensor, and also cropping very heavy in post-processing, I was able to create a nice portrait.
The next image is the same file, just edited in a vertical portrait crop.
Only 1/3rd of a second at f13 and ISO 100 for exposure. I would say I was very lucky to keep it this sharp with all that movement happening.
Maybe another try tomorrow.
I appreciate everyone for visiting my site, thank you.
