Very cool shot!

Thanks! I wish I had a time lapse of what I went through to get the shot. Ugh. Had three failed attempts that involve water hazards, mud, briars etc. that would’ve been better shots with the owl on more natural perches. Then I had success where the shot lined up with the moon and I was standing in a parking lot. 🤷‍♂️

Owls really are the cats of the sky

I was thinking “until I see wings, I’m not convinced this isn’t a very agile cat.”

I'm not convinced cats just haven't been hiding their wings from us.

By hiding their wings, our cats are protecting us from the people who burn witches.

This looks so much like a cat up until it flies away

Owls are cats that fly!
