Incorporating the Celery Farm and Screech Owl Companion blogs
Bonus Monday Morning Mystery 112910
This guy was seen at the Celery Farm 10 days ago. Who is he?
(Thanks to Doug Morel, who took this photo without flushing the bird.) This was the first time Doug saw the bird at the CF.

I LOVE hearing the great horned in the area, but (very humanly) worry about the little screech owls when I do.

jealous, jealous..so many times at the farm, if I am alone, I feel like I am being watched—guess I am.
so cool -
hopefully the screech owls are wily, and will avoid detection from that predator. If it stays and sets up shop, it will be interesting to see if the little owls stick around.

Nice shot Doug!

I saw this lovely creature there, about a month or so ago. . . and it was being harassed by 6 or 7 crows. So glad someone captured this beautiful shot!

That looks like a Great Horned Owl because of the white marks on the breast. The Long Eared Owl is similar in appearance, but the chest feathers and face shape are a tad different.
