These are some nice shots Max!
The short-eared owl in-flight shot is a stunning capture!

Thanks Bill and Terry.
Terry, I was using my Canon PowerShot SX50 HS. The lens has a 24mm- 1200mm equivalent reach.

While there's a Snowy owl at Fern Ridge in Lane County, Oregon; There's also one that has been making it's rounds in Polk Co. most recently over the weekend in Dallas, OR. Sunday it was perched on a resident's roof. The owl was seen in a different area of town on Monday and there haven't been...

Congrats, Janice! That's a nice landscape shot too!
Bill, currently the local birding sites are receiving reports of up to 4 short-eared owls at Broughton Beach behind PDX Airport along the Columbia River. I haven't walked the beach looking for them yet, it's on my list though.
Oh BTW, If...

Beautiful. The second to last photo would probably make a great print!

Nicely done, great light & color!

I envy you guys for these shots. I have yet to even take pictures of a Snowy owl. How often do they show up around there?
There was a report a few days ago of Snowy owl just west of Salem, OR way out in some fields making some landings. It didn't stick around for long as it was last seen...

Wow, good for you! Ridgefield seems hoppin' right now. I haven't been up there since the beginning of the year, maybe longer. The last couple times I was less than impressed.
Seems waterfowl are plentiful and closer to the road, autumn is usually a good season at the refuge for birders and...

Interesting seeing the remnants of that dam, Bill. Thanks for following up on this thread.
Reminds me, I need to check the local parks here for owls now that foliage is next to nothing in some areas. I'm finding that the Barred owls are becoming noticeably present year round in and around...

Bill, you, like most of the photographers on this site keep improving. When you started posting here I was hooked, you were taking some great pics, now it seems over the past several months you have jumped up a couple of notches in your fine photography. What are you doing differently??? Seems...

Nice shot, Deka! I'm keeping my eye out for the surf scoters in northern Oregon, I've never photographed one. Such a colorful bird.
You pointed out that your picture is out of focus, do you do any sharpening in editing? You could probably fix this photo to your hearts content in an editing...

Another superb series, Bill.
The past couple of weeks have been just horrendous weather-wise here in Portland, the next few days look promising. I really need to get out and explore!

Awesome shot, Rocky!
They took away the wolf exhibit at the Oregon Zoo awhile back, perhaps to make way for some of the remodeling they are doing. I don't think they had red wolves. It would be nice to see the zoo bring back a wolf exhibit and have some red wolves hanging around for "species...

Superb series with the Northern Harrier, Bill. Great control and congrats! Keep them coming.

I took some photos at the Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden in SE Portland Sunday afternoon.

My thoughts exactly, Terry.
Nice work, Bill.

Nice captures Bill! I've been wondering about the Marsh colors up there.
I took this photo at a lake in SE Portland about a month ago...
Fall color is starting to peak here however, sunny weather has disappeared for the time being. A series of powerful storms continue to move through...

I really like the lighting! What time of day did you take this?
Chad

Always good to hear, Janice.
I heard some Barred owl calls at a park in Portland just after 3pm on Friday. I was lucky enough to capture this shot just before the owl flew off. It was being harassed by some crows...
