Went to check on eagle nests on Friday and found two of the nests we observe have hatched chicks. The photography opportunities were not there for the eagles so a side trip in the woods was taken. The pheasant was looking for a mate and he caught me by surprise so I took his photos hand held.
Had a great time listening to the owls hooting again.
This is our backyard friend from this morning

Beautiful photographs, Jim. The cardinal and the owl are outstanding. I used to get to photograph pheasants especially in the spring, in my early years of photography, but seldom see one in our area now.
That is what I would have called a productive and great day. I have never photographed owls but they are on the top of my list and we never see pheasants anymore. As a kid we hunted and seen pheasants every place but I have only seen one around here in the last five years and it was a hen. A real shame as they are such an atractive bird.
What a magistic photos, you've done well capturing the owl.
Happy weekend.
