Last night's hunt
« on: January 10, 2008, 10:48:13 AM »
A buddy and I were out last night, and he got a real scare.  He was the one scared, because he was the one that watched this unfold.  It seems an owl liked the sounds we were making, and was on his way for my head until I turned my head to scan to the left.  At that point he was about a foot from my head and veered off and landed in a nearby tree.

He was there for a while, then took flight (which I got a blurry picture of) and landed in another tree.  Who knows how long he stayed.  We had the white light on him on full brightness, we were talking (out loud, as we wanted to see what would make him spook).  He stayed and was still there when we left.

cool pics.it is always a bit of a heart stopper when ever a owl comes swooping in like that.i have had it happen to me about six times over the years.the one time it came in and just kept circling around me trying to find that hurt rabbit
true pleasure is a pair of red eyes coming to you in the dark
