Wonderful owl photos, love the take off shot. Great trip, thanks for sharing.

[@JimmyBreitenstein]

Thank you, Stephen! I'm glad you enjoyed 😊

That take off from the pine against the yellow (around 17.05) was amazing!

[@JimmyBreitenstein]

Thanks Linda! I loved the background in that clip 🤩

Alright just hit pause after the first min and 40 to reply cause Damn that first minute or so of GG sitting there in backlight was spectacular Jimmy!!! off the rest of the video, I'm sure it is gonna rule! pretty sure

[@JimmyBreitenstein]

Thank you 😊 It was such a pretty setting. The Owl was pretty sporadic all morning, and they it stopped in front of the yellow leaves for a bit, it was incredible!

I could watch the video footage for hours! It’s so credible to watch. I love seeing them turning their heads around and the slow motion flight shots were amazing! Fantastic video jimmy. ✌🏼

[@JimmyBreitenstein]

Thanks so much! I could definitely watch them for hours as well, they never seem to get old 😁

[@naturallyadriftphotoadvent123]

Awesome, that opening footage is phenomenal!

Thanks for watching my friend!

Great video Jimmy and the Owl images are super. I hope you will get that flight shot printed, it should be hanging on your wall. I get very jealous when I see your GGO videos, my favorite bird that I will one day get a chance to photograph. Thanks for sharing your experience and for all your hard work putting these presentations together. Have a great week and good shooting!!

[@JimmyBreitenstein]

Thank you, Keith! I will definitely be printing that last image and putting it up in my office! I hope you get these guys I'm the coming year, they're such magnificent birds to watch and photograph!

Loved the owl shots. I know how difficult they can be so I can really appreciate the ones you got.

[@JimmyBreitenstein]

Thanks so much! They're definitely a fun challenge to photograph 😁

[@ottrebane8269]

Thanks for taking us along. I really like the video with golden background (doesn't have to be blue to be good) and the final shot in the video where the owl has just jumped into flight. Got the calendar last week! Thanks a lot!

[@JimmyBreitenstein]

Thanks a bunch, Ott! You're right, doesn't have to be blue to be good 😁 I'm glad you got the calendar, I should have checked these comments prior to messaging you the other day 🤦‍♂️ Have a great week!

Thanks!

[@northbama]

I must find some owls!

[@JimmyBreitenstein]

I can help 😁

[@bolleolympus]

👌👌❤❤👍👍

[@JosephPiotter]

Ok I can't be the only one who wanted to help the owl get whatever it was near its beak off. It could be my OCD though 😀

[@JimmyBreitenstein]

Hahaha 😂 I just wanted to reach up and pull it away when I was photographing it, I think it was bothering me more than it was the Owl 🤣
