WOW.......I've never seen an owl in flight....always see them just sitting there. This is clear and sharp and perfectly timed. Great job! #447386

Thank you all for the wonderful comments. As mentioned in the description this has been PS'ed to remove the birds handler and remove focus from the background. Sandy has wondered out aloud about the original image so I'll drop it in here to satisfy her curiosity :-)
