Portrait of my buddy...

Chappie from about a 20 foot distance. This individual owl is quite comfortable with my slow and close approach.

Juvenile Great Horned Owl (Bubo virginianus). (Click on image to enlarge.)

Later in the afternoon: Hey, mister, can I interest you in a wristwatch?

Iā€™m shooting these owl images with my Canon EOS 5D Mark IV with the Canon EF 500 mm f/4L prime lens, handheld, at ISO 1600 in a shaded forest.
