My in-laws came over Thursday night for dinner (Cookout). After everyone ate we were sitting on the back patio watching the kids play when all of a sudden three small owls flew down out of the tree and perched on our back fence. They were there for 30-45 seconds and then flew around the back yard catching bugs for at least 15 minutes. I was able to snap a couple of not so great pics. Very cool to see in person though!

Nighttime flash photography is not an easy thing to accomplish. Auto focus just doesn't like to work into darkness. I don't think I could have done any better with only a 45 second time frame to get going.
 
Very cool pics. It is ironic, I actually saw a huge owl swoop down and catch something right before I left the lake tonight. I tried to sneak up on it and get a picture while it was eating...but that wasn't happening.
