- Photos NOT OK to edit
This photo needs a little explanation -
I was stationed in Yuma, AZ from 1985 to 1988. We had some ground-burrowing owls there. I was walking back to the barracks and saw one perched on the edge of a building. I raised the camera, and snapped the photo - when I lowered the camera, the owl was gone.
A few days later I finished up the roll of film, and got it developed. Only then did I realize that a mockingbird was attacking the owl as I took the photo.
This was a small instamatic camera, and I was quite a distance away for that camera, so by the time I enlarged to a reasonable size, the picture was really grainy - sorry - but I think it's cool.
