I've never seen a barn owl, although a lot of my blogger friends have photographed them. A truly handsome owl! That goshawk wouldn't be hard to miss in the white phase! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLove your shots of this barn owl Carole! Aren't they just so interesting?? Have you ever seen the mother with a baby. We have a bird of prey rescue place here, and one of their barn owls had a baby. It was so adorable sitting their beside their mother. Hope that you are having a lovely fall!!
