Beautiful shot! I like how the tree bark and the owl's plumage sort of look alike.

Many congratulations @marlingardener - that lovely owl was looking at the camera! Nice shot it is, not to speak of the camouflage - the pattern on the owl would have so much blended with the tree's bark.

How did you manage the above shot which must have been taken in near darkness? Owls are so important as it controls the rodents especially.

A week or so after the owl showed up, our trailcam caught this in the barn:

The owl was checking out the possibility of having chicken for dinner. Our coop is the hen equivalent of Ft. Knox, so he didn't have any luck. He hasn't returned since.
It's probably just as well. When new friends start looking for a handouts a week after meeting them, it's never a good sign. (n)

Dinu, our trailcam is set on some esoteric setting (my husband understands these things) to pick up images in almost total darkness. We even got a photo of a fox once!

Wow, trailcam!! It must have 'infra-red' facility. Foxes come there too?
