Description

Just look at this beautiful fellow. His big eyes return your gaze. I had been sitting very quietly for about two hours in a 'tree hide' looking for bears when I saw this guy land on a neighboring tree , behind a branch so I could not get a good shot. A few minutes later I sneezed and he looked over and got a little curious. He flew about 15 feet away from me and I was in a quiet panic trying to quickly change out the lens on my Canon camera. I got off at least 3-4 shots as he looked right into the camera. Then I put my camera down and just enjoyed the moment. He flew off just a bit later and said goodbye with a long "whooo whoo whoo". I did not see any bears that day, but this was a pretty special encounter. Photo taken July 16, 2011 and being minted almost eleven years later on July 14, 2022. Great Horned Owls can live past 25 years old in the wild, so maybe he is still flying around out there somewhere.
