As usual, cropped to such a tiny size, but still just about OK to look at on-screen. This photo shows the popcan-sized owl larger than it actually is. Seen at Bebo Grove, Fish Creek Park, on March 15th. You can all give a huge sigh of relief soon, as I have almost run out of photos of this tiny owl, lol - and they will be leaving the park any time now - or may have already gone. Really hope it/they return to Fish Creek next winter, too. They give so much pleasure to birders and photographers alike.

Hope you all spent a few moments, at very least, thinking about our planet today. We have an amazing world to live in, for the most part, and need to do all we can to keep it that way. I spent this morning on a walk, seeing and photographing a few of the first early spring plants, including Prairie Crocuses, thinking how great it was to be enjoying spring at last. After a volunteer shift this afternoon, I had to drive home in a dreadful snow storm, LOL! The white stuff continues to fall heavily ....

This was taken on a very cold day, about nine days ago, down in a forested area of Fish Creek Park. Atrocious, harsh lighting, but, oh, the cutest of birds!
