You got to take the shot - a photo on Flickriver

            This was shot looking right into the sun. I knew it was going to be trash, but you can't pass up a shot of Barn Owls. If you're like me at Bombay Hook, once you turn the corner after the last pond, You step on it to get through the woods. This time something caught my eye, turned and looked and found this box. There was one on the outside of the box and these two juveniles.. I missed the other one. That makes 5 Barn Owls this year.
Kent County, Delaware
