screech owl

Another little camouflaged bird that isn't always easy to spot...such a tiny little owl, so always fun and lucky to find one to photograph!

This was taken a couple nights ago in my front yard. My husband held a flash light on him and he was quite accommodating while I photographed him.

This owl was sitting at our back door , on top of the security light attached to the wall and about a foot away from my face when I 1st saw him. We have a wind god that we put peanuts into for the Blue Jays. Mice climb the wall, The owl was waiting. He comes quite often. Rodent control at it's...

Nice to see the Red and Grey phase together. My son thought that was the best part.

It has taken 3 years to finally see the owls that live around my house. We have herd them, but never able to see them. I have been able to call these guys right to the front yard. As you can see these two like basketball. What a treat for Halloween

Here's one from today. Not a very photogenic surrounding, but this is the most reliable owl in the whole of the Montreal area. It was in this same spot when I last photographed it in April!

I went back and was a little more judicious with the flash this time.

I came across this little Screech Owl peering out from its hideaway during the middle of the day. Rarely seen but often heard, it's a real treat to spot them!!!
