Southern White-faced Scops Owl Ptilopsis granti
| White-faced Scops Owl - "This particular individual was photographed in
Halali Camp, Etosha National Park, Namibia, in October, 1998. It was giving a
rarely heard cat-like cry when photographed. The photos were taken with a Canon
EOS 1N & EF 300mm F4L IS lens with a 1.4X extender and a 540 EZ flash on a
Really Right Stuff flash bracket. The film was Fuji Sensia 100. The flash
bracket elevated the flash high enough to avoid "red eye" which is often a
problem when photographing owls. The camera and lens were hand-held on a
gunstock mount." - Greg Lasley | Photographer: Greg Lasley All images subject to © Copyright
