Here's a link to my Barred Owl posting with the SunPeaks newspaper! The photo was taken on my up to Lac Le Jeune.

Neat! I love that tip about allowing them space. We were probably moving around too much. We were just getting ready to sit down for dinner when this guy showed up. He was very close on the other side of the glass so we froze while Jenny tip toed to the other room to get her camera. This was a rare moment that I didn't have my iphone with me, otherwise I would have tried to capture some video. There was so much movement in the owl's feathers because of the breeze. And when he moved his head back and forth it was like watching a slow motion movie. I'm surprised he stayed as long as he did.
