Having, like Mozz, experienced a similar event with a smaller "tame" owl, I suspect this bird has in the past also been trained to come to a perch on a held-out arm.
But of course, to imply it's completely wild, sexes up the story.
Nevertheless, this doesn't detract from the fact that it is a magnificent bird, and these are spectacular pics.
Thanks for the link pasta freak.

Brilliant photo, pasta. There used to be a couple of those at Coombe Martin Wildlife Park in North Devon. They also had a couple of European Eagle Owls. They are huge and amazing to see close up.
We've not had a visit from the Barn Owl for some time, which is disappointing. He would occasionally perch on our back fence. One of those Great Greys would make it collapse!
