Great pics!

Watching an owl is a real treat. Nothing beats seeing one in the woods and its head rotating all the way around as it watches you walk past.

I have been fascinated with them since I was a kid - my grandmother really liked them and had a large one "stuffed". Apparently it had flown in front of my grandfather and grandmother's car and been killed. So they took it to an uncle who was a taxidermist and he did a fantastic mount.
 
Owls are real cool birds eh, great pics and a happy ending !!!!;)

I'm glad to see your back on the forum bro, I was starting to get a little worried for ya !:thumbup:
 
That is a Great act you did ,most people I have seen never hit there brakes much less stop, I too would of done the same...Excellent job Eric.....
 
My neighbor called one day and asked for help, she thought there was something in the chimney. I was ready to do battle with an angry racoon but it was a merganser [they sometimes nest in trees like a wood duck] . Totally black with soot , the merganser immediately flew across the river when I took it outside, none the worst for wear !
 
Fantastic rescue Eric!!!! Good job. Welders gloves are king for raptors!
 
Thanks for the pics. My kids loved them... and they've been searching all winter to catch a glimpse of one - no luck. Now they have.

Thanks Eric!
