Description
This is one of my favorite shots of Cupid, a captive Barn Owl that participated in a demonstration workshop. Here he has his talons out and is *just* about to land on the branch.
From Cornell's website: "Ghostly pale and strictly nocturnal, Barn Owls are silent predators of the night world. Lanky, with a whitish face, chest, and belly, and buffy upperparts, this owl roosts in hidden, quiet places during the day. By night, they hunt on buoyant wingbeats in open fields and meadows. You can find them by listening for their eerie, raspy calls, quite unlike the hoots of other owls. Despite a worldwide distribution, Barn Owls are declining in parts of their range due to habitat loss."
Photo taken October of 2016 in Aurora, Colorado.
