I look at these and all I want to do is touch the owl :) looks much more cuddly than it probably is :)

Fantastic shots of a fantastic bird. I saw some in Northern Norway, at the Varangerfjorden, but never got close enough. One of the most beautiful birds I've ever seen.

The bird man strikes again :) I wonder how you get so close? I have tried to approach them outside the breeding season but I never got this close. At the breeding site they are more approachable after the young has left the nest and the adults are feeding them.
