Barred Owl...

Once again I went out looking for some owls. I still haven’t found where the female Great Horned Owl is nesting. Earlier this week I went out needing snowshoes while looking for them. Today, I decided I wouldn’t use the snowshoes, but I could go relatively light in my camera gear. I figured I could just walk in my earlier snowshoe tracks to the areas I wanted to check. I recently found another Barred Owl about a mile walk from where this Barred Owl is located. I believe they are different owls because the other owl doesn’t let me get too close, although I was finally able to get a couple photos of it two days ago. This Barred Owl doesn’t have a problem with me being around. This is the same Barred Owl I’ve spent over 3 hours with recently taking photos and video of it. It took me about 3 hours before I located this Barred Owl today. I was beginning to wonder where it was at, because about a week ago I saw the male GHO in the exact same area where I’ve been finding this one. Here are some of the images from today…
