Thermal Image of Two Barred Owl Fledglings
This is the first thermal image of Barred Owls that we have shared.
We are using a thermal imaging monocular for this purpose.
The Owls look a little spooky, but sometimes an Owl can be very hard to locate in the forest canopy.
The thermal imager that we are using to find Owls is pretty cool, but its resolution is kinda low. Nor does the device have any auto-stabilizer built in (so my views of them can be very shaky), but the imager does allow us to save even shaky videos of what we are viewing.
Our work with thermal images to find wildlife is in its infancy, but it does provide a nice tool in our utility belt.
Once we have a video, we take snapshots of interesting frames and that is what we are sharing here.
