Ridiculously cute little owl! Even when it regurgitated a pellet onto my (thankfully gauntleted) hand! You can see the action in photo 5!

This little owl was brought in with a broken wing & cannot be released so is now an educational bird at the center.

You are welcome Christy!
I will certainly join your mission & add a few more spottings when I'm home from vacation!
Karen, I would love you to join the Raptors of North America mission...This would be a great addition...along with all your other raptors!! Thanks again for helping me expand the range!! It seems a big hit! http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8627...
Thanks Atul!
lovely!
lovely!
Good idea! They're like little Great Horned's! Their talons would go right through the skin! Wouldn't be fun!
Christy, she was so beautiful but had lots of attitude too - hence the reason they suggested I wore the glove!
He's beautiful too! We rarely see the red-phase...what a color!! I'm glad you experienced that, Karen! ;-)
