Paul Bannick Photographs the Great Gray Owl

A few years ago, Paul Bannick went to photograph the Great Gray Owl in Northern Minnesota. He writes: "I went out one morning before the sun had risen and found one owl that was in a particularly photogenic place. I watched that owl: where it flew to, where it perched, how did it come looking for prey, when was the sun on its face." Paul learned what the bird's habits were, and that give him the best chance to capture the image he wanted. Learn more about Paul's book, The Owl and the Woodpecker.
