In addition to the spectacled owl which I posted last week, I also photographed a tropical screech owl while in Panama. Unlike the spectacled owl, this guy is quite small — less than ten inches in length. Tropical screech owls are pretty widespread throughout much of South America and up through Panama, Costa Rica and the Caribbean. Nikon D810 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 330mm) ISO 400, f/8 at 1/200th of a second, Nikon SB-900 flash
Thanks Melissa,
No she didn’t but she mentioned it. I’ll ask her tonight. Did she tell you about our evening with a very curious barn owl in the Galapagos? As far as I’m concerned, barn owls are among the finest of all owls.

Hi Sean – great pic! Did Karen show you the barn owl picture I sent her. It was just sitting on our mailbox all day.
