I was out a few weeks ago around the Minesing Swamp near Angus, Ontario Canada. I had been out looking for Snowy Owls and was near the end of my day. I took a trip down a closed road slightly off the path to home. Just a short way down the road was this beautiful Barred Owl on a branch facing the light for some amazing shots. As I was taking pictures, something caught it's eye and it looked like it was ready to fly. Just a short distance in front of me was a vole or mouse. It didn't miss!
