Eastern Screech Owl (Family Strigidae, Otus asio). The eastern screech owl stands about 8.5 inches tall and has a wingspan of 20 inches! There are two color phases, red and grey, but both have beautiful yellow eyes. Their "ear" tufts help them hide from predators by disguising them as a broken branch. The Screech Owl is the smallest of all owls. They never max out at more than 8 to 9 inches. When they eat, Screech Owls feed on mice, rats, and other small game/prey. Like all other owls, the Screech Owl is nocturnal. Here we have "Acorn", male, red phase, hatched in 1995.

After a bit of an absence, partly vacation but mostly tax season...busy for bookkeeping businesses... I'm glad to be back out here with at least 'some' regularity. I've missed everyone and am glad to have a little more time again.
Wow, I have to say thank you for the Talon series! You captured some great shots!

I think it's wrong that only one company makes the game Monopoly!! Picture Purrrfect .
Now isn't he cute!? I think I have one of these in the woods by my house, because I hear the who-whooooo who-whooooooo every night around 2 a.m. He sure is a great color.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.
