I have seen all four of the native species of owl that are found in the Southern U.S...Great Horned, Barred, Barn and Eastern Screech.  As a photographer, I've captured several great images of each.  The only owl that I still need to get a better photo of is the Barn Owl, but they are tricky to locate.  I have also seen, (and gotten a silhouette photo), of a Short Eared Owl that visited our area this time last year.  The highlight of my spring of 2021 was seeing two Great Horned owlets in their nest.  I also captured a fledged Barred owlet, and a non-fledged Eastern Screech in the red morph plumage.  I love to photograph all birds, but owls are hands down my favorite.
