Pygmy Owl

Well after driving around for almost 5 hours - stopping - looking - seeing nothing - we finally saw this owl. I feel that we were very lucky. This was a cooperative owl who moved around onto about 10 different perches. Most of the time he was surrounded by branches or in poor light, but I finally managed to get him on a clean perch in open shade. I took over (gulp) 1000 shots!!! We had 16 minutes with him before he flew off.
