Cathedral Owl

Well, I got that pic of the Owl looking down at me! Almost didn't...was sitting on the log at Creek's End after an afternoon of walkabouts...exciting day as there was a rain shower...and I had picked up in the failing light of dusk and was walking up Lodgepole Point and heard ...hooo hooo hoohoo hoo hooo....and I was off...and then heard screech....screech. This pic is of the Owl screeching...there were two!! Didn't find the other...too busy with clips and pics of this one...which I think is a juvenile Great Horned Owl as I just read they do the screech. Bested all the other pics of the day including a little bit of rainbow against Half Dome. Great pic day..tomorrow the dentist...really would like to stay in the Valley for more pics!!
