Birds of Prey Centre - Grey Owl

[Birdy]

Finally sorted my computer problems so can participate in the forum again!

These were taken on a recent visit to the Birds of Prey Centre at Biggleswade. The juvenile grey owl was not about to do any of that flying stuff despite the efforts of the handler, but I think 'he' still has some real attitude about 'him'. WDYT

Thanks all for taking time to comment.

Certainly did a good job that day, took lots of close up shots of various birds to try something different and it returned some great detail.

A cracking set. You've got to love a bird with character.
