Some Owl pics from our Turkey trip

With temperatures in excess of 46C at times photography was challenging and often impossible. On one occasion after travelling for a couple of hours with my camera in the boot of the car, the lense (400mm DO IS USM) was almost to hot for me hold, no wonder the auto focus wandered in and out refusing to lock most the time.

 3 of the 4 Juvenile Pallid Scops Owls seen in the Birecik Tea Gardens. When one of the adult showed well my camera refused to focus because of the heat.
