An exceptional day for photographing owls in the wild! After days of snow and cold, the owls were very active and obviously hungry, taking to the air in the afternoon (generally they take to the air around dusk). In the area there were about twenty owls , with as many as ten visible at one time. | time lapse photography of owl flying
