We have a Great Horned Owl that has been returning to the same area for several years and he has fondly been nicknamed "Jabba the Hoot". I went looking for him this morning and sure enough he was where he usually hangs out. There has been lots of people looking for him and he was a lot jumpier than he normally is.

These are sweet Keith!
Love the exposure and muted background. You are sure having good luck (or perseverance) in finding these owls! :)
