Very nice Paul.  I could only see a ball of feathers when I saw him.

This is what most owl species' photos should look like---the owl sleeping and obviously not being disturbed. Exceptions, I suppose, are diurnal species such as Snowy and Northern Hawk Owls.
Congratulations.

I see too many owl photos on this forum and others, with the owls alert with eyes wide open and in an obviously disturbed posture, and sadly, many of these photos are praised by people who have got their priorities wrong, in my opinion, of course.
