Stretching exercise

The smallest owl in Europe and Asia. It is only about 16 cm long and weighs about 60 grams. It's extremely rare here. It's been the first visit of this species in this country since 2006 and 1999.

He looks so much bigger with his stretching that from the thumbnail I thought it was another owl! Wonderful catch. V
