Agua Fria Owls – January 21, 2013

AguaFriaOwl

My daughter Jaz attended Agua Fria High School in Avondale, Arizona. She was an honor student all 4 years, and enjoyed her time there. Agua Fria’s mascot is an owl. This image was shot across the street from the high school, if the blurry red background is the school office. When we moved to Avondale 15 years ago, these owls were a fairly common sight. I have pictures of 3 and 4 of them standing around “guarding” their burrows.  I have not seen one in several years now. This image is from January 21, 2008. Canon 30D, ISO-200, F5.6, 1/1000 sec, EF 75-300 IS lens at 300mm.
