    Presently, there's an event that draws attention of bird watchers to a small island (Bizard island) near Montreal : a bunch of great gray owls is in a parc of this island. Today, I was there to shoot them (not with a gun naturally) and met several nice fellows from the US. They are coming to see the owls from several nearby states (Vermont, NewYork, Maine) and even states as far as Massachusets and New Hamshire.

    WOW DAO!

    The third is my favorite. Very menacing look it has. Excellent captures.

    Thanks,

    Really nice shots, Dao. Is this the same area that Yves was going to?

    I hope to find more owls down here this year as well.

    Don't know if we have these around, but I'm sure going to find out.

    WOW! These are fantastic, some of the best I've seen of these owls. I have two friends going up there today to try and find them. I am sooooo jealous, wish I could get up there!

    Dao, your owls

    are just wonderful. I rarely even see an owl, never mind get a chance to photo them.

    Thanks for sharing these.

    Best

    Wonderful images of a bird that we (I) rarely see. You have photographed them very well. Thanks for sharing these great images.

    Hi Janet, nice to know you're present in these forums. There's a lot of great gray owls in the park. Yesterday, I met at least 5 of them. Try to catch them in flight but miss all the shots.
