A great horned owl perches on a fence post at dusk in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph a great horned owl fills the frame from top to bottom. It is standing on a fence post. Its claws splayed out, which are really big with some talons griping the post and one hanging off in the air. The owl is facing the camera and looking right into it. Its signature big yellow eyes looking intensely at you. Its horned ears, which are actually feathers, are slightly back in a relaxed position. The background is blurred leaves from a small deciduous tree.

I photographed this owl and its family last summer. It was special!
