birdshooter > Owls have the ability to rotate their head around so they can see what is behind them. As this Barred owl turned his head I snapped this photo then moved to another location. Barred owl, Brazos Bend State Park

birdshooter > Barred Owl, Brazos Bend State Park. This photo was chosen by Birder's World magazine as a photo of the week. I had called this hooter to me by just imitating a Barred Owl. He answered several hundred yards away and flew into this tree and we had a hooting conversation.
birdshooter > Barred Owl This is one of my favorite photographs and one of the first I ever took as a bird photographer. I happened to be walking the Red Buckeye Trail in eastern part of Brazos Bend State Park in mid-Oct and saw this Barred Owl perched. I approached him quietly with a Nikon F100 with a 300mm lens. His attention was focused on the ground. I snapped several slides of him before he leaped off the branch to the ground and onto a green lizzard. He took the lizzard up about 40 feet in an oak and consumed him. His flight down to the ground and up into the oak tree was as silent as a butterfly. They are amazing animals.
