Eastern Screech-Owl

Why did the Owl invite his friends over?

He didn’t want to be owl by himself.

Interesting Fact: Like most raptors, male Eastern Screech-Owls are smaller than females, and are more agile fliers and hunters. The female doesn’t hunt while on the nest; she and the chicks depend on food brought them by the male. Though the male is smaller, his voice is deeper than the female’s.  ( https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Eastern_Screech-Owl/ )

    The call of Screech-Owl is one of the most haunting on Earth. I love how you have captured the perfect camo of the feathers.

    That’s an amazing shot! I had to look for a second to see that he wasn’t a knot in the tree. Lol. And the owl puns might be your best.
