I was about 3 meter away from the bird using my 70-300mm on my D90. and thanks to S Frazier for the ID, Laura n satyen for your like.

Wonderful shots :) I like the second photo, it looks like he fell asleep! I'm also curious about how close you were, we have a similar owl in Europe called the barn owl and it is VERY shy! Lucky you for getting nice shots of this one (I agree with S Frazier's ID!)

Great shots. Just out of curiosity - How fare were you from the bird while clicking these shots?
