What I see when I visit this screech owl. Cold ,but beautiful orange sunset when I arrived. This one is the most timid screech I have ever found. Thanks for looking. Appreciate all comments.
Fun sequence John. This guy is definitely shy He is peeking out and saying 'oh it's you again'
I like that second shot, love the colors and setting of this find. Still amazing just how dark it is when you shoot these and how well they turn out! You are one dedicated Owl Guy
Keep it up, some amazing owl finds you have located.

Lucky you John to even get to see one. Maybe it was nervous of your big 600 f4.

Owl eyes dilate significantly to maximize light intake for superior, low-light night vision. Unlike humans, owls possess conscious, independent control over each pupil, allowing them to adjust to varying light conditions instantly. Their pupils can expand or contract at different rates, even if one eye is in shade and the other is in direct, bright sunlight.

Tony, you're 100 % right. That's how I feel lucky. This guy is super nervous, walk by his tree and ducks down and won't come up again for 30-40 mins. Then he just peeks out, probably 45-60 min.before he fully shows himself ( if it's dark ). Even with a small lens
He is peeking out and saying 'oh it's you again'
