Short Eared Owl

Wildlife and Wild Places Photography - Exploring wild places and searching for wildlife has taken me far and wide. Photographing wildlife at a unique moment in a stunning scenic setting is the challenge. Creating an image that invokes an emotional response in the eyes of the viewer is an exciting adventure and my ultimate goal.

Short-Eared Over Short Grass
Short Ear Over Short Grass - A short-eared owl with wings spread out glides over the short grass on the savanna plain. Ndutu, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Tanzania, Africa. Our guide spotted an owl flying in the distance. We drove to the location where the owl landed. As we approached the owl launched and flew past and in-front of our vehicle. I was ready and was able to get this image of the wings spread as it glided over the grassland.
