Bubo bubo
Eurasian Eagle Owl (Bubo bubo).
Great children-friendly falconry demonstrations are given by Angelique from the falconry ‘Flying Free’ at Muiderslot (the Muiden Castle), the Netherlands. After the demonstration, I could photograph this lovely bird of prey.

This image made me giggle a little, Its a great portrait, love the clarity and focus seems just right. The warm/yellow colour cast could be adjusted a bit though. Composition with background included is dramatic.
