"Oh, wings of silver spread on high, Fierce eyes of golden light, Across the clouds of purple hue In sheer majestic flight-Oh, Twilight! Oh, Twilight, most beautiful of owls, Who sculpts the air Beyond compare. With feathers so sublime, An owl for now- An owl for then- An owl for all of time."

Incredible and stunningly beautiful bird

What a beautiful animal.

"Am I looking good from this angle, or am I looking good from this angle?"

So alert when on the ground after eating.....the owl knows it's vulnerable......simply amazing !

last week i had a great grey owl on my hand... it's amazing how light they are although they're so big :)

So beautiful, thank you for sharing this incredible video!

Hmm. It is nice to observe nature at close quarters but I am against baiting. Isn' t the thrill of creeping as close as you can and watching the owl catch its own prey far more rewarding and ethical?

This video is likely a composite. The perch the owl starts on and the one it ends up on are ill-suited to be owl perches. They are obviously quite weak but they do not bend under the weight of the owl.

So cute!!

I'm the summer, I'm traveling from Kajaani to Utsjoki, the onto Lakselv in Norway. What are the chances of seeing Great Grey, Eagle and Snowy owls during my travels?

Canon eos 1d mark III? I know you got some great shots, though.

If I am not mistaken Strix Struma is a spotted Eagle Owl. she is described as a regular spotted owl but if you search for her species you will see the similarities of the eagle Owl opposed to the regular spotted.. Eagle owls are in the Strix family. So she was referring to that. Eagle and Grey are both Strix species.

SO CUTE!

Beautiful gray 🦉 owl

Awesome video🦉♥️

Where did you get the mouse to feed it?

Such amazing creatures!

Baiting in is a great way to get the shot.

this is my spirit animal

OMG sooo cute!!!

Can an owl swoop down, eat prey, then sit there and locate another, fly up while keeping location on the prey, then swoop down and catch it? Do owls always have to hunt from a high perch?

Owl: what are you staring at?

Holy crap... That's an amazing bird!!

was this in alaska?

very awesome and huge bird. North America's largest owl and in terms of length, the largest in the world.

Personally, I think of Errol from the Harry Potter series when I see a Great Grey Owl.

How is this owl both wild and tame at the same time? Is she a trained owl posing for photographers?

"No jos teillä ei oo enempää hiiriä..." :D

Its common nicknames are: Phantom of the northern forest (or Phantom of the nNorth), Great grey ghost (or Grey ghost). Its scientific name, "nebulosa",is derived from the Latin word"Nebulosus", meaning misty or foggy.

I can not even imagine that any animal aby life-form could be more beautiful and might he improved.. This owl is just an example how brilliant mother-Nature or ... How great G*d is. It's imposible to understand...

do owls attack humans ? how dangerous are they to people. I'm from new Jersey I've seen 3 owls in my life and they looked tougher then tough

yes it is, unfortunally...

I came here to see the mouse. The horror.

If you want to see how tolerant Greys can be search Great Greys an watch one of several that shows just how much they will tolerate humans. Greys flying and hunting just a hands span away from them and even lets one of them pet him. Great vids. makes you want to just reach out an touch him yourself. OWLS RULE!!

Great video! Very enjoyable! Greetings.

he looks just like Twilight from GOG!

He/she gave the csmeraman the death stare at 0:19 lmao!

А что? Больше не подкинут ? Жаль, ..., Мало !

Söder om Skellefteå 1979 såg jag en , hade kameran på hotellet, återvände dan därpå, hade en Nikon F2 med ett 400 mm, tog fyra rullar, kastade ett par snöbollar som den dök på , har stött på lappuggla senare i Håckrenområdet. har en skrämmande upplevelse av slaguggla i kolmörker, härmade en vid Lillsjöhögen i Jämtland

On another note someone asked if they could expect to see one these greys, an eagle or a Snowy owl in their travels? I can say yes and no. Most often a grey will not come as close as this one does BUT they have bee known to be very tolerant of human presence. Eagles can be tolerant but most times no and Snowy owls are VERY protective of their nests so don't go to near them. NOT very tolerant at all. They will attack Violently if they feel threatened so be cautious and view from afar.

Just like in legend of the guardians twilight caught a vole

Jeezes, he lookes excactly like Twilight from 'Legend of the Guardians'. Where's the lute?

Baiting Wild animals isn't helpful to Nature as Humans in many cases are dangerous but since Nature is heavily persecuted by our general actions I'd say it neutralises this baiting. Depending on what Owls being fed & frequency

that look haha 00:20

Wow forte

silly owl,you don't know what you tube is!!! lol.

You tricky the owl

Geez twilight that was a little rude infront of the camera!

nice

maybe just bird photographers... i wouldn't try this with a lion.

I like owl bird

I swear Negative people crack me up!!!! I love Owls they are beautiful birds and if they want to interact with humans its their right if not they don't have to!!!! I'm not going sneak up on one and grab it and say Gotcha Bitch... That a way to get its Talons put on you roughly. And if one ever landed on me I'm not going to freak out ether!!!

Animale eccezionale.. stupendo ,)

wonderfull animal

u know that's not good to do, but u do it any way.

🥰🦉

I though owls only hunted on the nights :S

ne eule aus legende der wächterxD

This isn't a tame owl, you are manipulating her using live food that is otherwise hard to find and using baiting in order to pretend to be a wildlife photographer. Baiting is highly unethical and will habituate her to humans, so eventually she will likely hurt herself or a human. Please consider sitting and letting nature actually takes it course. This is not wildlife photography.

+Ciconiiformes Just like it for what it is , why comment and troll here, if you don't support baiting then don't watch it, People like you with bird feeders and Hummingbird sugar water feeders or that have fed a duck some bread at a local park are just as guilty just can't seem to admit it to themselves, Hypocrites. Be glad he is just shooting with a camera man and not doing like so many hunters do maybe not with owls specifically but their are people that bait to shoot and shoot to kill. Go bother them not someone that fed an owl its natural prey for some beautiful photos and video

+mack1time It's unethical and I like these fake wildlife photographers to know that they aren't talented. This doesn't take work. This isn't how a national geographic photographer gets "the shot". And feeding prey animals is VERY different from feeding a predator, and feeding bread is horrible for birds. It would be helpful for you to understand predator/prey dynamics and behavior before commenting and pretending that you know anything. Any decent photographer, bird watcher, hawk watcher or biologist knows this is bad, and I want this person to be aware of why they are a shitty human being. Let nature be natural, don't interfere so you can get "likes" on KZread and Facebook.

Great video, but please just chill out with those Annotations.

Baiting wild animals is dangerous and unethical birding/photography. Don’t support such activities.

WILD life photography, what a joke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if u look closer u can see its fake

So you threw a live mouse at this owl just because you wanted to get the shot that badly? Amateur.

Terrible...this guy is baiting owls, and causing them to become habituated. All for the sake of a stupid photo...shame on him...highly unethical!!!!!

@TheRyano4ever

when you say habituated do you mean teaching it to not fear humans? which presumably would be bad because they'd seek them out for food decreasing their chances of survival in the wild? I'm taking up animal behaviour at a college and have a little bit of trouble remembering all the terms and what they mean
