A few days ago we found this adult Burrowing Owl in early morning light and\u00a0perched high on some rabbitbrush with the Great Salt Lake as background.\u00a0 After I got the pickup stopped it only gave me\u00a0a second or two of posing before it flew off.<\/p>\n

\u00a01\/1000, f\/5.6, ISO 640, 500 f\/4, 1.4 tc<\/p>\n

Most of my images of this species\u00a0show the bird on the ground with a cluttered setting so\u00a0I like the cleanness of this image.\u00a0 I also enjoy the fact that with the sun so low\u00a0both eyes are well-lit even at the top of the corneas where there’s usually some shadow from the brows.<\/p>\n

If I’d had more time I’d have adjusted my settings to\u00a0get more depth of field for the tail but sometimes, just occasionally :-), birds don’t cooperate with my best intentions…<\/p>\n
