Please submit your best ever/most liked photo of your, or anyone else's owl.
The only rules of the competition are that the photograph must be of an owl and the photo must have been taken by yourself.
The competition winner will be judged by the end of July NOW EXTENDED TO THE END OF SEPTEMBER
Bob

Each person can submit up to 3 photo's, I am not taking part as I am a photographer and if I didn't win I would be gutted, not to mention a tad red faced.

Lol Bob...typical man!

Here is mine. It was taken by me but my ex had the original I just had a print which I put on the wall, it got all dusty then I scanned it so the bits are dust :oops:

This is my beautiful Custard (before he was stolen) & my beautiful son Oscar who was only 18(ish) months old (now 5)

I have decided to extend the competition until the end of September on account of so little/few entries.
So come on folks, lets see these snaps of some owls

You are right, linking from another site 'steals' their bandwidth, feel free to upload images into the owl forum,

The pixel size limit is to stop the topics looking messy, however spar managed 400x267, I am lost with the 300 part?

Hi.
I took this photo about 2 years ago and shows a clutch of owl babies bred at the centre where I used to volunteer. It was when the head falconer brought them in to see us and we had last seen them when they were at the ugly stage, before he took them home to raise them!
It still makes me smile whenever I look at it!
