Superb Owl Sunday III

[catbyte]

Alan Taylor 10:50 AM ET

A special Sunday event, a photographic essay celebrating a few of these magnificent birds of prey. These nocturnal hunters hail from Europe, Asia, North and South America, captured here in photos taken over the past few years. If you have some time today before the big game (or are skipping the event entirely) I invite you to have a look, it was a real hoot putting this together.

2. Beautiful photo collection. Thanks for posting.

Had one cooing to me this morning during coffee - very relaxing. Don't know what genus it is 'cause I can never find it with binoculars.

I'm perfectly happy just hearing its beautiful song.........
