I found a couple of what I think are great horned owls, and am wondering
about photographing them. They seem to have staked out a small clump of
pines alongside one of the greenways in town, but they're staying pretty
high up where it's going to be hard to reach them even with my 300.
I'm wondering about using strobes when photographing owls, whether it
will do them any harm?
There is always controversy about using flash on wildlife. I notice that
birds give me really dirty looks when I nail them with my flash-xtender
(which gives me a great follow up shot! ;) ). But really, all the
"scientific" studies have shown no effect on wildlife health or behavior.
That being said, just out of respect, I wouldn't blast an owl with a
strobe at night when it's hunting. Of course, I've always wanted to try
multi-flash on bats... ok, I'm evil.
