I love photographing Owls ( It normally involves being out late afternoon near sunset ) and in winter good light and a clear sky means sub freezing temperatures and numb extremities.
Still, its all worth while to get a shot like this Short Eared Owl over a local set aside field, in parliamentary terms, my vote is that the eyes have it.
I do think the eye's on shorties are beautiful but the one thing I like is if done properly as an observer and patiently wait they can come so close given the observer a really close encounter that takes your breath away
