One last pic of Great Horned Owl mate

I just had to post this one last pic of the mate of the Great Horned Owl that was on the nest. I really enjoy taking photos of birds that think they are hidden as this owl apparently did. Be sure to double-click on the pic for the best view of the owl.

I think part of my fascination with these pics is the reality that most likely many more birds escape notice when they stay still behind tree limbs or foilage. In effect, the joke is truly on us humans who think we are so good at spotting birds.
