Yeah, those meat hooks would do some damage

Check out the talons on this cool dude! My goodness. Owls aren’t often seen as predators but believe me, they can be just as ferocious as any raptor and have the tools to do it – clearly. This Great Horned Owl is the male at one of the nests I have been watching this season. Pictures of him have been elusive but last Friday he was posing right out in the open (relatively speaking given it is an Owl).

This week I restructured my online store to include a section just for my owl pics, ensuring I give them their just due. Check it out here.
