Title: Long Eared Owl in my backyard in Richmond Hill
Post by: dizzy on March 10, 2011, 08:33:05 PM

I came home(Richmond Hill) from work to find a Long Eared Owl in my backyard. This certainly made my day. I hope the picture is not too dark.

Happy Birding

It's our dream to have an Owl show up in our backyard!  :o

Nice catch... it's good to see them in a relaxed pose rather than the alert/danger stretched out pose.
