Screech Owl Eyes - Who's Watching Whoo?

Eastern Screech Owl eyes

A fleeting glimpse of Mr. Screech Owl

More a tribute to the camera focus than my luck! - a little capture of Mr. Screech Owl on alert in typical heavy cover. After spending all of March, April and early May with the Screech Owl family in and around the nest box - we will rarely if ever see them again until next March. When not nesting they stick to heavy cover. They are around -  just out of sight and quiet until mating season starts next February.

Transformer Owl Takes Down Curious and Annoying Squirrel!



Transformer Owl and the Squirrel



Transformer Owl 2013 was patiently guarding over her nest box with three owlets when a pesky and curious squirrel decides to check her out. She puffs herself up and extends her wings to look big and scary as the squirrel is already right on top of her. She holds her patience for awhile and then sends the squirrel on his way - scared but unharmed. This is the same mother Transformer Screech Owl that has displayed her prodigious talent in the past by shrinking to look like a tree branch from a Red-Shouldered Hawk on the exact same tree in 2012. This amazing wild creature is the real wild transformer owl!
