Sleeping Ural owl
A ural owl (Strix uralensis) is almost invisible as it sleeps high up among the branches in a tree during the day. Near Tsurui, Hokkaido, Japan. It was very difficult to find a good angle to photograph the owl among the thick branches (best larger)

on November 17, 2016That would be a difficult shot, yet you accomplished it well. I hope one day to see an owl in the wild and have my camera at hand.

on November 17, 2016Know what you mean. Of course any attempt to find a better angle will almost always insure that the subject will leave...
