A gray owl in all its glory
The great gray owl, also known by various regional names such as Lapland owl or bearded owl, is a truly large bird. This stunning image was taken in one of the coastal areas of the United States where these magnificent animals are common. The incredible thing about this photo is not only the exceptional image quality, but also the perfect timing in which the photographer captured the owl as it swooped down on an unseen rodent. It’s so perfect that you’d think the owl had posed for this photo. But in reality, it’s a rare, authentic moment that shows the raw beauty of nature
