Scoop owl... don't hug me :D

Description

Hi all

The story behind the picture is very long, as is the processing story :D

First, it is a manipulated owl... meaning that we had to remove them from the nest for some minutes while we deal with the hornet nest that would have killed them. And of course, it was impossible not to make some pictures of them :D (they were 2 and they both took flight a few days later, while I was in my hide).

But the strange thing is that I found those pictures... yesterday :D I know that it is strange, but as I had to find some other pictures, I looked at my stored SD cards... and those pictures were still in one of them !!! :D

So, here is one of those picture.

Enjoy

Nathan

I'm always interested in the expressions birds have when photographed at -just- the right moment.  This one appears to be thinking... "Don't bother me until I've had my coffee."

Another beautiful shot. :)
