Owls are without any doubt my favourite birds. Who has not been fascinated by these birds as a kid? There presence often only noted by their call, the ability to fly and hunt at night, their charasteristic shape and pearcing eyes all stand out and make them intriguing and mysterious. A few years ago I saw my first owl in the wild, a short eared owl hunting in the mid of a winter`s day. I was so excited and thrilled to be able to both witness and photograph it, I will never forget that moment. After a while I started to understand the owls and their needs a little and it became easierto find them. It has resulted in some nice images (at least, I think so).
