A couple years ago, Mat saw an owl in the river bottoms and really wanted to get a picture of it. So for a LONG time after that we would have the camera with us as we drove down there but we never really saw it again. He wanted a picture of an owl but you don't see them very often.
Last week, he was 4-wheeling with the boys at the ranch when he saw 2 owls. For a couple nights after we went up and "stalked" the birds. Last night we went up again (which I told him it was the last) and he finally got a great picture!

That is awesome! I love how the light is hitting just in the right area. It is a beautiful creature.

Did you change yr email address? I tried sending you an email today and it sent back and said it permanently failed...?
I had a question for you. Remember for John's baby shower you gave him a hooded towel (which I LOVE) and you said you made it. Do you have a pattern or instructions for that? I could prob try to figure it out, but my preggo mind doesn't work so well right now...
thanks!
