Oh, no ... guess what


Sorry, lol, I know I said that I was done with posting photos of the tiny Northern Pygmy-owl in Fish Creek Park, but - I saw it again yesterday : ) I had bumped into a group of friends when I arrived at the parking lot and they told me they had seen it. Well, it took a lot of looking, I can tell you! When I finally did spot it, it was towards the top of probably the tallest tree in the area, but it eventually flew to the other side of the path, to the top of the second tallest tree. Again it flew and disappeared. After looking and looking and looking, there it was, not too far away, but in a tree with a tangle of small branches, thankfully with none across the owl itself. These little fist-sized/popcan-sized owls are just about impossible to see : ) I think this was only about the third time I'd had any fresh air at all in the last 5-6 weeks, which is so bad and, though sunshine would have been really nice, I'm sure the short walk did me some good. The owl certainly did : ) These little guys are just so beautiful - and fierce! They are rare to uncommon here in Alberta.
