Canon EOS 1D Mark II, 500mm f/4, 1/125sek @ f/4, ISO 200

The Eurasian Eagle Owl (Bubo bubo) has been chosen as Bird of the year 2008 by the Norwegian Ornithological Society. This amazing bird is regarded as endangered in Norway and are threatened from several different directions. Hopefully this extra focus will help maintaining a healthy population in Norway.
