BFO @ BRT - Record Shot!

[Praveen Siddannavar]

This Brown Fish Owl was taking dips in a water hole, as she heard noise of our jeep, she flew far away deep into the forest & perched on a branch. Actually it was really difficult to sight her with naked eye, I managed to take few shots for record purpose. The light was also not in our favor, this is a big crop:(

Coincidentally this is the 3rd time I have photographed a BFO and all are record shots:(, 1st shot was at Bandipur then Ranthambhore and BRT-K Gudi.

Camera Model Canon EOS 40D, 100-400mm

Hi praveen,

Even i came across BFO when i was in BRT on MAY 14-17 for elephant census, But unfortunately i couldn photograph as i was carrying 18-55mm lens and it was sitting far .

Thanks for sharing.

Good record. I am sure soon you will find one posing nicely close to you.
Cheers,

The perch and the eye contact is nice. Wish it was closer to you. Thanks for sharing.

You seem to be sighting BFOs quite frequently. You will surely get a good shot soon. ;)

You might want to try and reduce the noise.
