Boreal Owl 3

Boreal Owl, Aegolius funereus

 

Usually when you are lucky enough to see a Boreal Owl, Aegolius funereus, they are sleepy and nestled away with twigs and branches around them. A few days ago I was lucky enough to see on that had come out to hunt about an hour before dark on an overcast day. It was a very exciting experience.
