I always give the photos a critical look since most owls have one eye color, but the Long Ear can have eyes from very yellow to very orange. It always has me looking to see how much manipulation has been done to the image.
Long Eared Owls to me are very striking in navy regards, but to a tasteful, restrained amount. The eyes, facial disc, plumicorns, and overall coloration. They’re bold, but not over the top.
It’s one of my top owls, but it’s usually not so popular here, and maybe that is why - they don’t have that one thing to capture attention.
These eyes are one of those shots that look so good you might think it’s fake. Like that colour and clarity!
