Nice one, Owl-Light, Spars are such great birds, we've a few around here, keep finding their leftovers in the wood I walk in. |

Its certainly no bad photo and a great subject. What sort of camera do you have?

I knew she'd fly off if I attempted to go outside to get a better shot. Just opening the door would have alerted her. I've watched her before and she's pretty exausted by the capture and plucking all the feathers. It would have been unfair to risk disturbing her meal at that point.
We do get some great views of wildlife from our Kitchen, I really must make a point of keeping the window glass crystal clear in future. |

Nothing much wrong with that shot, and there's not much wrong with your camera either. |

Good shot, tempted to think that you would be very lucky to get a better shot even if you had an SLR. | | | |
