Description

Perched in a tree, the barred owl scans the forest floor for small creatures. Large, forward-facing eyes equip the owl with exceptional vision and an acute ability to judge distances. Soft, fringed feathers silent the owl’s flight as it swoops down to catch its unsuspecting prey. These guys look so calm, but so confident.

I hope you like it! Feel free to critique and suggest changes.

Thanks Danica! I took many photos of it, so I'm glad I got a few that were properly lit. They can be hard to shoot sometimes! They move so fast.
