It's really, really, really true - if you pray that God blesses you with lots of birds or even just one bird that you have been yearning to take photos of or even just see in the wild - it will come true one day. Grass Owl30D + 300mm f/4L IS and lots of patience Gallery of Laguna Owls

Very wonderful captures! May I ask where in Laguna were these shots taken? I studied college in Los Baños.

Thank you so much Manny, Ding and Bindi. Bindi, the owls are around a few minutes before 7 a.m and then they hide again
