Description
Found this lil lady enjoying an afternoon siesta earlier this year. It was the perfect cover for her, you couldn't see her unless you knew where and what to look for.
She stayed in this particular tree for about two months and then I haven't seen her since.
A small owl of all types of woodlands, the Northern Saw-whet Owl can be found roosting in winter in small, dense conifer trees, sometimes even in parks and gardens. Its defense upon discovery is to sit still and not fly, leading people to perceive them as "tame"
