Spring has Sprung 2: Eastern Screech Owl

Ottawa, ON

For the third straight year, an E. Screech Owl has occupied this tree in the Springtime. If past years are any indication, it will move to another (predictable) location within a few weeks.

Shortly after this image was taken, a Cooper's Hawk flew overhead. Even before the hawk arrived, the little owl became agitated; and dropped out of sight. Great hearing…..

I checked my files and this hole was also used in 2012 ! The tree looks exactly the same.
