Watching You…
A couple of weeks ago I noticed a hoot barred owl sitting on a sign along side the road leading out to our house. He was there one evening and then again the next morning. Then, he was gone.
Yesterday, as I drove to work in a light rain, there he was again. He was closely watching the ground – probably looking for some critter to eat. When I stopped my truck on the road to watch him, he looked directly at me and I got this picture.
Pretty cool, eh?

I believe this is a barred owl. The barred owl, along with the barn owl, are the only dark-eyed owls found in Kansas. Beautiful shot! What lens were you using? I like the depth of field!
fl was about 200mm. I’ve made the change to identify it as “barred”.
