The Allure of Owls in Flight


Owls possess a unique charm; their nocturnal nature and silent flight make them special subjects for photographers.


  • The Great Grey Owl, the largest owl species in North America, can reach wingspans of up to 60 inches and is known for its striking facial disc, which helps it locate prey.

  • The Snowy Owl, on the other hand, features brilliant white feathers and bright yellow eyes, making it a stark and eye-catching subject against a snowy backdrop.


Capturing these birds in flight demands more than just a high shutter speed. You need to understand their behavior, habitats, and flight patterns. During your time with Hemmings Photo Tours, we will share essential insights into owl behavior that allow you to anticipate their movements and take better shots. With over 15 years of owl photo expertise, you are sure to return home with incredible images and memories.
