This Eurasian Pygmy Owl (Glaucidium passerinum) was hunting. Couple of slow strikes, and then suddenly a few fast ones. Looks like this owl, the smallest in Europe, was after a small bird this time. However, after 30 minutes, still no success and various little birds started to bully the tired owl even more, than they did before. An old Silver Birch (Betula pendula) with few holes provided the necessary shelter. Happy Days.
