Great Horned Owl

The spouse and I headed out to the park where a pair of great horned owls nest every year.  We just found about it last year.  On Sunday, we went searching and found the male sleeping in a tree.  From talking to people at the park, it sounds like the pair was nesting, but that they lost the nest after the last big rain (not the rain from today).

We were there in the middle of the day and I was also shooting into the sun. 

We also heard spring peepers in a more open portion of the park. There was no way to get a picture of them, but I did snap a shot of the location they were singing from as a way to remember.
