Great shots Nick.....love the owls, they're on my "wish list". There are Barred Owls, Great Horned Owls and Barn Owls here in Ky but I have not be fortunate enough to get a good look at one yet

Beautiful light and details on that first Bluebird Vern....very nicely done, I am really wanting that 600mm II but can't make up my mind....I would have to sell both my 500 and 300 as well in order to handle the expense and I just can't make my mind up to do it
