Owls' Nest

A neighbor spotted this great horned owl's nest in her yard, with only a single chick. The light was difficult and it was very hard to catch the mother in the nest during the daylight hours. Still it was fun taking whatever shots were presented!

Canon EOS 7D ,EF 100-400mm f/4.5L
with mirror lock and cable release full exif

Mother owl looks very alert, the little one looks like an English barrister. Nice shot under difficult conditions. V
