I went to the Rio Grande Valley birding festival and took nearly 2,500 photos. But one of my favorites was this little Screech-Owl in his roost. At first they said "he is sleeping in his hole and we can't see him", I was bummed. But we came back later and he was in full view. Was a life bird for me.

What a great image if you didn't know he roosted there you would never know he blends in so well with tree becomes a part of it great shot

Thanks, and I agree. I never would have seen him without help. One example of how going with birding guides can be a great advantage.

Wow!  What a great picture, BM of T.  It took my eyes a few seconds to "find" him, too.
