While out taking landscapes, I got to the fence bent down to put a lens in the bag, when a loud "whoosh" startled me. As I raised my head I found myself eye to eye with this young eagle owl. To run ...or to try to get an image. ?? With pounding heart and fear in the pit of my stomach, I must have clicked 3 clicks.....(I don't remember that ) He then shot off over my head .At that point I saw the huge talons...A close encounter of the best kind! Looking later I saw ME in his eye on the image. lol A selfie of a strange reflective kind.
