92. Great Horned Owl - August 09

When we took Gavin out to Reifel today, we only wanted to see one new bird. We never expected it to be the Great Horned Owl. There were 2 of them sitting 20m from the path, in the middle of the day, sleeping and preening in turn. They seemed amazingly big and fluffy. Their ears were very easy to see, and their eyes were amazingly yellow. Just beautiful. Molly thought they looked like cats.
