Description Happier of happy though I be, like them I cannot take possession of the sky, mount with a thoughtless impulse, and wheel there, one of a mighty multitude whose way and motion is a harmony and dance magnificent.
William Wordsworth

Excellent capture! I'm very impressed. His expression is almost human, the way he's half closed one eye- I didn't even know owls could do that!
