It took this little screech owl less than 12 hours to find and move into the new owl nesting box our neighbors put up.
Happily sunning herself. Sure hoping we have little owlets in the next few months, also peeping out ....

Hi Sandy,

You are lucky to have screechies using a nest box. I like the pose and the centered comp. She also is giving you a peek with her left eye..............................Jim

Way cool, Sandy. I had no idea Screech Owls would take to nest boxes. I can see another carpentry project in my future.
