Made my day when I spotted this fellow above me --- early afternoon but he still checked me out before dozing off again.

Wow Sue, how lucky were you!! Such an incredibly handsome fellow, and so nice of him to show you those big beautiful eyes. Whereabouts did you spy him? Just in general I mean, not exactly where

Wow sue what amazing shots, and I can't believe how close you are
Would this by any chance be the Jamieson reserve barking owl as i went down there last weekend and heard a barking owl but unfortunately could not locate it
Very nice Sue. Your photography is coming along in leaps and bounds.

Thanks for the comments annie and Babybirdwatcher: that is the area (in Sydney). The location was different to the usual spot and he was not calling as it was early afternoon. I was very lucky and the light was good for my 400mm Nikon. You could appreciate his size better in the causarinas.
Great photos ....always interesting here too see pics of birds I have not seen
These are beautiful Sue .... I don't know why I seem to be the only birdwatcher that never has encounters with owls ... night or day!!! I love the snoozy shot after he flashes the big yellows at you !!

I have not seen many owls but this fellow is very obliging. Thanks Akos, sometimes it comes together well and that training helps.
Awww, what a gorgeous owl! :) Well captured!
