Hi there..

I am obsessed with owls and I was super excited to see these Barking Owls at a wilderness park in Broome WA... What amazing birds these were to not only photograph but also listen/talk to.. They actually bark..and even answer back..The wire did make shooting a little difficult though..

Oops, sorry guys.. Maybe I have put this in the wrong section.. Should it just be in the sharing photo's section? Still learning the ropes.. Sorry again..

Such intense eyes and you got them spot on! Owls are a wonderous bird, aren't they.
