Bubo virginianus
Large owl with brown, gray, and white coloring. It has a black ring around its face, and a short bill. It has large talons which are visible in some of the pictures. It has large yellow eyes, and tufts of hair by its' ears.
This owl was found in a neighborhood park that is surrounded by fields.
This owl was sitting in close proximity to its nest. I also was able to get some pictures of its young which I will add to my spottings. I was very excited to happen upon the adult. It was very well camouflaged.
