The owl looked so cool walking along the fallen log. What a great encounter. Absolutely love your videos.

Sick of GGO vlogs? Absolutely not Steve. I'm in the UK and love to see you trudging through the Teton woods. I am becoming obsessive about that beautiful bird now. We have been lucky enough to visit the Tetons and Yellowstone twice, in 2017 and 2019. We travelled with a long mental list of wildlife and have seen it all EXCEPT the GGO. We so need to get back! Keep up the good work.

Beautiful creatures. Back in the 80s I lived in a small town of 5000. Everyday on my way to school I came by a private property. On that property there was a house and next to the house there was a tree. A spruce or pine tree only a few meters away from the street and the sidewalk. On that tree there were sitting 10 to 20 owls basically every day - I don't know for how long. Must have been years. Almost everyday I took a short break there and just watched those amazing creatures. That tree became well known as the home for owls. Long-eared owls if remember correctly. So beautiful. I've never seen anything like that again in my life. One day in the late 80s the tree was gone just like that. Never saw an owl again in and around town.

Thank you very much for the awesome content! It seems like one of these special days we wildlife photographers encounter just super rarely, your photo work is outstanding, especially the walking on the branch. I just can't believe on which close proximity you could work with this owl, that wouldn't be possible with any owl or bird of prey in germany at all!
