Portrait of a Burrowing Owl

I'm not sure if this is Clove or Paprika but this is one of my favourite shots of the day. Their native habitat is the Americas so keep your eyes peeled over there!

You can fave this too!

I've built a wordpress plugin that uses the API from photo sharing sites to share when people fave my photos on them within this site.

To show up on the left - simply fave the photo at one of the below sites.

In the future I look forward to making it more available for other wordpess users to benefit from.

I have been watching eagles hatch at: http://www.zaplive.tv/web/hwf-sidney2?cid=8 and had forgotten how wonderful owls are.

Great capture, Phill - the owl is beautifully positioned in the frame and you nailed the focus point and DOF. Dave Wilson’s last blog post:Stevie-Ray Vaughn Statue, Austin, Texas

Camera Information

This information comes from the Camera and is stored in the EXIF data; occasionally it can get corrupted so if you notice anything odd - please let me know!

My Gear

It's not all about the camera. Some of my favourite shots were taken with a 4MP point and shoot camera; and I've been lucky enough to have these photos sold. That said sometimes your gear limits you. Even the gear I used for the shot is not perfect - you're mileage may vary!
