Hi Mike. Glad you like the photo. I shot this at an Indian Pow Wow in Sussex County, NJ last year. I took the shot because his eyes where so strikingly glowing orange. I'd never seen anything like it before. I checked a bird book and can only come up with one owl that looks like him, with similar eys. A Eurasian Eagle-Owl. In answer to your question, no changes were made to his eyes, that's the real thing. Thanks for responding, I appreciate it.

Hi Michael. My apologies for addressing you as Mike in my earlier response. I'm not sure which you prefer, sorry if I offended you. I guess my brain wasn't working. :o

This IS a Eurasian Eagle Owl (Bubo bubo) - I was "married" to one for about 8 years and the eye color is absolutely true!
Congrats and good luck!
