I had my second opportunity of the season with a Barn Owl in flight yesterday morning at Bear River MBR.

A recent trip to northern Box Elder County produced some interesting raptors and uniquely challenging shooting conditions.
Barn Owl Flight Series – From Small In The Frame To Frame-filling
I’ve never before been able to get this many sharp images of a bird in flight in a single pass.
A Cooperative Barn Owl In Flight
In many of my images of this Barn Owl it was coming straight at me but in this series I was able to get a quartering angle on the bird.
Three Consecutive Shots Of A Barn Owl In Flight
This Barn Owl was hunting near the road in front of me so I pulled over and angled my pickup for a lucky shot or two just in case the bird came my way.
Bear River Barn Owl, Perched And In Flight
When it’s this cold and snowy Barn Owls are flying during daytime over much of northern Utah. They’re often not easy to find but when you do locate one they can be fairly cooperative.

I’ve been wondering when I’d photograph my first Barn Owl of the winter. Yesterday was it.

Farmington Bald Eagle Update
For the past several weeks I’ve been receiving almost daily requests for the current and anticipated Bald Eagle situation at Farmington Bay WMA so this morning I’ve decided to be a little proactive with a blog post that covers most everything I know on the subject.
Barn Owl Hunting In The Clearing Fog
Recently I’ve spent some time rooting around in my dusty archives and I’ve found a few gems that I originally passed over.
Barn Owl Looking Even Goofier Than Usual
In my experience Barn Owls can look pretty goofy, even on a good day. With their conspicuous facial disc, small (for an owl) deeply set eyes and their long, ivory colored bill pointing almost straight down, they look, well… different. But I certainly don’t say that disparagingly. They’re magnificent birds and I love’m to bits.
Barn Owl Hunting Rodents
I typically go about 10 months of the year without seeing Barn Owls flying in daylight but when snow and extremely cold temperatures arrive they’re often forced to hunt during daytime in order to obtain enough food to survive.
Barn Owl In Flight – An Image That Deserved A Second Chance
It’s easy to miss the potential of a photo when viewing it full frame. This image makes me wonder how many diamonds in the rough I’ve deleted over the years…
Perched Barn Owl Actually Doing Something
It’s not often that I photograph a perched Barn Owl doing anything but resting. Opening and closing their eyes is about as exciting as it usually gets.
