Thhese are great, I am more amazed that you found their nests, many of them, and then were able to capture them with their heads looking out. Great patience, persistence, and knowledge of them you must have.

Wow! Great capture. voted

This would, I am sure, make for a great pet - except for the screeching, of course. Still, my cat isn't half as cute - or probably as deadly.

Cute screech Owl. I have heard them but never seen one. I have a huge owl in my area, that others have seen capturing Cats, I've lost a few cats, it's probably a great horned owl. I have had it fly past me on walks. I have never seen It perched. I agree with Tom. GMV
