Barred Owl (2)
Copyright ©2014, Joe Saladino
Viewed times

While driving through Myakka River State Park in Florida with my car window down, I heard an owl hooting. I stopped the car, looked up, and saw this Barred Owl peering at me from it's lofty perch high in a tree beside the road. Luckily, I had my E-520 with a 300 mm lens attached and was able to get this one shot through my open window before the owl flew away.

Who?

Great shot, nice and sharp too.

Having the camera available while driving gets me a few shots I'd not get if it was in the trunk.

Thanks for the comments. I was driving through the park with my camera on the seat beside me because it was my intention to shoot something that day. Got lucky when the owl appeared unexpectedly.
