Tawny Owl, Strix aluco

I was told about a Tawny Owl, Strix aluco that was showing in a local park, so decided to check it out. It was at the same place last year so fairly easy to find. So here are a few shots of it.

Nice. Interesting depth of field on that last one. What lens and format were you shooting on this set?
