Barred Owl?
High in a tree growing next to a dirt road. The road cuts through marsh land, growing alongside a creek, near a freshwater lake
First Owl I've ever had the fortune to find and photograph during daytime hours

This may be interesting to you since you found the owl during the day. Nice shot!
