A series of seven of nine consecutive shots to show the Owls takeoff and short flight to almost its catch. (P.S., I left out the "carrot")

Please view in original size for clarity and detail. The images are stitched together in order from right to left. Why? Because that is the way the bird flew. LOL

Note: I previously posted six of these shots in a series at http://www.pbase.com/hankvv/image/158962559
