Short-eared Owl midair fight - Black Dirt Region, New York

 

Here are my latest, short, slow motion videos of the Short-eared Owls that I've been lucky to photograph in the recent weeks:

1 - Midair fight of two Short-eared Owls - What I particularly like about this clip, is the upside down flip of the owl on the bottom. Did you notice the length of its legs? :)

2 - On the hunt - Short-eared Owl taking a sharp turn and a dive, while hunting over the farm fields in New York state. I like how this owl first turns its head and whole body follows right after...

Pretty neat, isn't it? 

I'm getting more into recording video. I would like to hear some of your comments and critique.
