We received an email from Tom in New Minas, Nova Scotia, which is in woods just north of the Gaspereau River. He was out walking his dogs when this barred owl flew up into a tree beside him. The owl just sat there looking at him as he took the photo, and didn’t seem to have a care in the world.
Do you have a bird picture you’re really proud of? Send it along to birdcanada@gmail.com with a short note about where you took the shot and we’ll feature it on the blog. You don’t have to be a professional photographer – just someone who likes taking bird pictures. Let’s see how much Canadian cross-country representation we can get from reader submitted bird photos!
I have always wished to see an owl and never have!
