Recently had been out in search of nesting Great Horned Owls…since I was in the area it only made sense to check for a much smaller owl.
This Eastern Screech Owl much to my surprise was nestled into the same cavity that I had seen last fall… truly the Masters of Camouflage.
These owls are monogamous and usually become active late in the day just before sunset. This could very well be a location where the pair nest…will have to keep that in-mind.
Couldn’t help but think of the line from the movie Bambi when I took this photo…wake up, wake up friend owl.
