Comment from Sange
This looks like Teddy from Flamingo Gardens. He lost his wing and lives there. He is a kind sweet owl who took a liking to the sound of my voice. The handler allowed me to take several photos since he was happy being close. He is an amazing barred owl. Great clarity and details.
Well done!

Beautiful little guy. Hope he recovers soon. Composition, exposure, contrast, and clarity are all well done. Nice job. Thanks for sharing and good luck with the contest.

What a wonderful photo. It captures this owl's feelings in the eyes. There is a certain wistfulness about the expression, sad, yet aware he is being cared for. Beautiful colors.
