Great Horned Babies by Kay Kempton Raade
Sometimes you just can’t get babies to stay in their nests. These two were put back in their nests, but they kept flopping out. They were brought to Eastern Wildlife Center in NC. They were so happy to be fed. They grew up and went wild and free.

Snowy Owl SC by Anthony Hedger
I think this is the first time I was able to get as close as I was to this beautiful fellow. I was so pleased when I uploaded it onto the computer and saw the results. Believe me this has had selective colouring on the shot it is just that the owl is mainly white. The original shot was taken in The Cornish Birds of Prey Centre & Animal Park in Cornwall. I have been playing about with it again; a crop here to focus tight on his beautiful eyes and selective colouring there and this is the result which I love. I hope you like it and thank you for viewing. The selective colouring was made in Photoshop Elements 6 NIKON D60 DSLR / F-stop f/9 / Exposure time 1/500 sec / ISO speed 100 / Aperture priority / Focal length 190 mm on a 70 – 300 mm Nikon lens All the materials contained may not be reproduced, copied, edited, published, transmitted or uploaded in any way without my permission.

'Silent Gaze' by Robbiegraham
I thought I would have a go at a larger painting. / (Gouache 23×15). Barn owls are mainly crepuscular (active at dusk and dawn), there is huge individual variation – some are highly nocturnal whereas others regularly hunt by day. Barn Owls are amazingly efficient hunters. When prey is abundant and the weather favourable they are able to catch food every few minutes! Although Barn Owls are highly adapted specialists, they are also incredibly vulnerable. Their soft feathers are not very waterproof so rainfall is a problem. A wet Barn Owl is unable to fly silently and a weak wet Barn Owl may be unable to fly at all. My painting shows the Barn Owl pruning its wings, a regular requirement in winter!
