Raptoring, 2/26/2011

While raptoring in Linn County this afternoon, I shot some images that I could use a little help on.  What I believe a shot were a Short Eared Owl and a Kriders Red Tail.  these were both shot in one of our hotspots near where Interstate 5 and Diamond Hill Road intersect.  The Owl was about a mile east on Diamond Hill and the hawk a mile northwest of the intersection, on a road named Rowland Road.  please give me any and all comments on these birds.  The Owl images were taken at distance of approximately 200 yards.  The frontal Hawk images were taken at about 100 feet, the back side shots at closer to 300 yards.  Due to very poor lighting and wrestling with a new (used) replacement for my old E500 Olympus, these by no means my best quality shots!
