An Owl, A Baby and a Mono

[Char3105]

I love owls. Despite them not being quite as magnificent and "proud" looking as falcons or hawks are they always do looks so clever and wise. I know.. its all just an illusion but I go with it lol.



This is not a very good image. I had to shoot through very thick mesh while mummy and daddy were trying to attack me through the cage. Nearly dropped my camera as they came towards me.

I also forgot from what brids these are. But mummy and daddy were bigger then the falcons I photographed, so I guess it was off a hawk of sorts. I just thought it would be interesting to see anyways.




I was playing about with some more of the bird shots I took the other week and thought a mono might be quite nice as well. I chose the peregrine picture for the conversion as I thought the markings in his face would stand out even better in mono. I personally like it a lot. Hope you enjoy too. xx
