Wow what a way to start the day. Was not expecting to see this morning so absolutely delighted. Thank you guys and especially a big shout out for the all the people who voted this as their favourite image in what was a collection of really good images.
As for the image, wildlife can remind us how striking and colorful it can be. I love birds of prey and it's a long list but owls top it for me. The colour and detail this little one has is awesome.
Congratulations to John Raftery!
