Great Horned Owl Arizona This great horned owl has been visiting us at our home nightly for over two weeks. I finally got a great picture of it sitting in our tree just outside of our backyard. It was perched in a heavily covered tree at dusk so I had to use a flash but tried to keep it looking natural without blowing out the light. This particular one is in very good shape and has had no shortage of critters to keep it healthy. Bubo virginianus,Geotagged,Great Horned Owl,Spring,United States Click/tap to enlarge Promoted
