Barred Owl hunts in slow motion.
That owls can hear small animals rooting around, on a windy day with other wood-sy noises to boot, never diminishes its impression on me. Here, our male jump flies from one branch to the next, just to be right above the unsuspecting prey. Alas, my far-less-than-owl hearing recorded the cries of the vole as he was swept away in flurry of feathers.

Barn Owl in the Wind
Переглядів 141Місяць тому
Unlike Barred Owls, Barn Owls usually perch standing at their full height, which gives them a certain slender elegance. Indeed, sometimes I'm shocked when a supposedly chunky Barred Owl stands up straight and apparently sheds its weight in the blink of an eye. 02:30 Wind parts the leaves to reveal the Barn Owl from head to toe

Nice to see the honeybees back in the orchard. They are indicators of a healthy ecosystem.
Barred Owl kisses his mate
Переглядів 921Місяць тому
Often unsubtle and sudden with their kisses, and yet gentle with their talons, these owls always make me smile. I like it when they snog and then back off to opposite ends of the branch. Always fun to push these videos against very difficult lighting. Here, the búhos are in the deep shade with strong back lighting. You'd like to keep the sky and the shadows but you have to make a choice on how ...
Barred Owl basks in the sun

Barred Owls, unlike many others, do not shun the big star in the middle of our solar system. Our female seems to love the sun's warmth when she perches in her favourite Copper Beech.

Must really know each other to use their talons in an amorous way. Could poke an eye out!

One of those illusory moments when the canal is like glass and you're hard pressed to see where the water and shore collide.
Barred Owl "sneak" attacks her mate

She may be silent but not silent enough to trick her better half. Still, she nearly knocked him off the branch.
Barred Owl gives up a pellet.

She seems to have created a new idiom along the lines of the "pellet doesn't fall far from the owl". Normally, a pellet falls to the ground; this one stuck around. 01:32 Pellet out
Barred Owl eats bird
Переглядів 973 місяці тому
The 100 acre wood has a resident female and she is a beautiful bird, but she's also a clever hunter. This Spring, she has been taking advantage of the many new avian families and raiding their nests. You can see that when she failed to remove one of the legs, she took that as her cue to stash the bird for later.

Barred Owl watches a wind full of interesting things

The woods are not a studio, of course, and you have to take what Nature gives you for light and colour. Our male was sitting on a branch in the shade on a bright cloudless day, with a half acre carpet of long grass acting as a green reflector. You can't counter all the colour casts-no doubt a colourist could-so I elected to take most of the green off the owl at least. Unfortunately, this put a ...
Barred Owl gives you a 15 minute preening session

Amazing to me how different she can make her face look with subtle changes to the feathers on her cowl and facial disk.
Barred Owl eats robin chick
Переглядів 7694 місяці тому
Our female is an exceptional hunter, but she rarely targets robins or birds in general, especially in the daytime when her eyes, that make her such a formidable predator at night, give her no advantage over the much more maneuverable prey. But on this occasion, she must have been woken mid day by the sounds of robin chicks in a cedar across the meadow. She took one and stashed it and went back ...
