Hi Jay, I think it was actually keeping a very sharp eye on me while hanging out in our backyard. Reply
I really like this composition, with the half-cropped, heavy, vertical trunk on the left and the spindly branches shooting off to the right. The owl echoes the colors, textures, and (somewhat) the shape of the trunk. Nice. Reply
I have some images from another day where he has his eyes open but I liked the background in this shot and how relaxed he looked. Reply
Everything about this shot is great – the composition, colors and focus. I especially like the subtle white birches in the background. Reply
Love it! I’m always jealous when people get a chance to see owls, let alone photo them. I like how the owls matches the environment color wise. Reply

What a handsome fellow! Seems so self satisfied. Love this.
Agree with all of the above,but I wish he’d opened his eyes.

I could reconsider my opinion about the eyes. Nothing wrong with a good nap.

This is a very intricate shot and the closed eyes makes me think that he is thinking.
