  • Great Grey Owl in Flight I was mesmerized as I watched this grey owl complete a successful hunt, and even more excited as the owl continued to fly towards me and eventually land in a small tree only a few meters from me. All I could do was to keep snapping photos as it flew closer and closer. I had chosen my spot to sit in as I had observed the owl fly to that specific point in the meadow several times, and I was just elated when my prediction came true and the owl flew the route one more time. But this time, I was waiting for it with my camera! 

The black and white copy of this photo really brings out the detail better in the owl, and isn't so harsh to look at as the grass was very bright behind the bird. I don't edit in b&w often, but I felt this was an appropriate photo for such.

  • Great Grey Owl This was my first grey owl encounter and it was so awesome and inspiring! I love owls, but being that they're nocturnal I often go for long periods of times without seeing them. This year in Yellowstone National Park was said to be a good year for owls in general, with many tourists reporting owl sightings, including many grey owl sightings. I encountered this one while on an early morning hike looking for bull elk. I didn't find any bulls, but was just as happy with this guy!

  • Great Grew Owl Final Photo The final grey owl photo I captured in YNP this past season. A very fierce, yet tolerant bird, and I loved having the opportunity to photograph such a magnificent bird!

  • Perched Great Grey Owl This is the second grew owl experience I had during my 2015 YNP season. This owl, along with its mate, had a nest nearby and hunted the surrounding meadow at dawn and dusk. I never got a photo with both of them together, as they were usually hunting when I observed them. They are such magnificent birds, and it is eerie how quiet they are when flying!

  • Great Grey Owl Hunting A grey owl launches off the ground after successfully catching a small rodent from the meadow. I was fortunate to observe the whole process, which was absolutely incredible! One of my favorite wildlife encounters to date! Observed in Yellowstone National Park.

  • Yellowstone Great Grey Owl My boyfriend and I had the privilege of seeing 3 different great grey owls in Yellowstone over Labor Day weekend. These birds are so magnificent and gorgeous. I believe they ended up being in our top 3 favorite birds list :)  Great Grey Owl,Strix nebulosa
