Our photo of the day comes from Calgary, Canada.

We have loads of photos of majestic owls in flight or posted regally upon their perches, but I can’t take my eyes off of this unique action shot of a great gray owl taken by Tony LePrieur. I love the bird’s focus, posture, and the precision of its approach … no wonder they are such great hunters.
