Title: Barn Owl Rescue Centre Post by: JohnC on September 19, 2010, 02:44:53 pm Visited our local Barn Owl Rescue centre on Friday and took 836 shots.(owls, and a buzzard) They were taken in the fields around the Centre (they own the fields).This Barn Owl was brought to them starving ,11 years ago in a shoe box .It's 12 now. They normally die before they're two but the average is 4 but in a Centre like this they can go on to 20. I'll post these and start on the others.

Fabulous images of a fabulous Bird :)
Title: Re: Barn Owl Rescue Centre Post by: JohnC on September 21, 2010, 05:46:24 pm Thanks both. It certainly looks a very gracious bird and beautifully coloured. Still working on the others.

Title: Re: Barn Owl Rescue Centre Post by: JohnC on September 24, 2010, 04:12:39 pm Cheers, Mark. Got caught with the convection yesterday and now editing so hope to get a few more up from the Centre soon.
I sometimes get like Martin says re. himself - a bit burnt out. I can stay on here for the rest of the day now so I'll get it sorted. Title: Re: Barn Owl Rescue Centre Post by: Danny Power on September 24, 2010, 11:02:11 pm Beautiful images John |
