I can go months without spotting an owl. Yesterday, I saw two different species.
The Pygmy Owl was intently watching some smaller birds: chickadees, siskins, goldfinches. It looked poised to have one for breakfast, but flew away rather than attacking.
I have not seen a Barred Owl for a half-dozen years, but this one seemed unperturbed by cameras.
Wonderful photos, thanks. Most people never see owls but don’t really go looking and listening.
Definitely not perturbed this time! The photo of the Barred Owl is quite something. What a gift to get a shot like that.
Gosh that Barred Owl is gorgeous! Thank you, Alistair,
Tina
