Voici une photo d'une chouette rayée (je crois...)
que j'ai eue la chance de capter en liberté, ici à Granby.
Elle est très imposante, environ 50-60 cm
et elle ricane d'une façon démoniaque...

Mathieu, c'est super ! Il y a eu quelques mentions d'observation de chouette rayée à Granby cet hiver mais très peu et je cherche toujours la mienne. Bravo pour cette photo.

Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States
The poor bird looks absolutely frozen in this cold scene. A wonderful capture.
25 Mar 2008 12:09pm
@Viewfinder: Don't forget it has a very efficient winter coat! :-) Thanks for the compliment,

Scarabaeus from Manchester, United Kingdom
Lovely shot, I wouldn't want to be that bird. What kind of owl is it?
By the way, I believe to have fixed all the commenting problems on my blog. Please let me know if you find anymore.
25 Mar 2008 1:37pm
@Scarabaeus: Don't forget it's a Canadian bird, a little cold won't harm it! :-)

danthro from Suburbia, United States
wow. beautiful capture. great composition. beautiful owl. it must be very cold though.
25 Mar 2008 5:06pm
@danthro: Don't forget the owls are even hardier than us Canadians, they also have a better winter coat! :-)
vu@granby - Wolfgang
@Vida: Certainly different from this bird! Thank you!

MaryB from Staffordshire, United Kingdom
How wonderful to capture this magnificent bird in a winter setting. Really beautiful.

Très belle composition. J'aime beaucoup les tons!

@Cathie et Michel: En plus c'était en ville! Merci au nom de Mathieu,

Steven from Chicagoland, United States
The poor owl looks so cold in this detailed capture. The markings of the feathers add a nice dimension to the photo. I only hope it wasn't a photo taken recently and that the weather is more "spring-like." :-)
25 Mar 2008 9:28pm
@Steven: As I said, owls are pretty tough and they have a good winter coat! As for the weather, we still have a solid snow cover and are bound to have a few more snowfalls before the end of the season, like this night we are supposed to get one more inch. Thank you for your visit,
vu@granby - Wolfgang
@shahab: Yes, the colors are cold in this one. In the name of Mathieu thanks for the compliment,
vu@granby - Wolfgang
Paul Wright from Wiltshire, United Kingdom
This reminds me of a Robert Bateman painting. He is also Canadian I believe. Beautiful shot, everything works perfectly.
25 Mar 2008 9:53pm
@Paul Wright: You are right on both counts, the photo has a similarity with Robert Bateman's style, and he was born in Toronto. Thank you for your kind works on Mathieu's photo,

Gilles Martineau from Granby, Quebec, Canada
Quelle chance ou quelle patience tu as eu pour photographier cette chouette. Malgré les conditions de chute de neige, tu as sorti une belle qualité de photo.

@Gilles Martineau: Merci au nom de Mathieu,
vu@granby - Wolfgang
@Rita Garcia: Obrigado muito, and I like this very different bird!

Superbe photo Mathieu! Cadrage superbe, l'ambiance bleutée donne un effet de froid qui convient parfaitement. Bravo!

amazing shot. Owls scare me and yet they intrigue me. They are such lovely creations. You did take an awesome image. The blueish tint to the image really suits it.

Voila c'que j'ai a vous dire (parce'qu'elle peut pas parler)*
"Ah, la belle chouette....!
A pas besoin de maisonette,
Elle peut dormir sur un rameau
En bas, aussi bien qu'en haut.
Ricaner ...c'est son metier
Fault pas du tout demoniser
La belle chouette en liberte!"
26 Mar 2008 5:52am
@Japanalia: Wow !
Une chouette poésie sur vu@granby : génial.
Que cette image ait inspiré cette sensibilité
démontre que le photographe a bien atteint son but.
Job done, Mathieu !
Merci beaucoup Gabriela.

Thanks to all for the comments. Actually, I found out where this owl is living and sleeping (even if it have a verry large hunting territory she seems to come back all the time)....I saw it hunting the other day, she grab a squirrel right in front of me. I will try to take some more pictures when I get a chance. It's pretty big, about 60cm height and it's laughing is demoniac...to be continued.
26 Mar 2008 8:00am
@Mathieu: On est surtout TOUS bien contents de ça.
C'est un bel encouragement
