Lovely. This owl isn't very colorful (compared to your other bird photos) but those eyes are so mesmerizing!

Owls are of my favourite bird species and this little fella is a cracker.

I'm a big fan of your pictures but I find the use of flash is irresponsible. You could have damaged the owl's night vision and I'm sure it interfered with it's hunting temporarily.
