Eastern Screech Owl
Eastern Screech Owl , Point Pelee National Park.
Very interesting observation --- Do you see the shut eyes of this owl? Look 1" below them, there are dark feather patches that are mimicking 'open eyes'. So, this may disuade other animals from approaching it even when its eyes are closed.
