Tawny Owl (Isle of Mull, Scotland)

Here is a  pretty little thing, the Tawny Owl. It was photographed in the evening, hence, it was in fading light.

  4. Well, Once I had an owl in my office. It was wounded in the parking area so I took her in my office . After 2 month she was ok and I set her free. Just the same color. Wonderful image, Bob!
    My regrads!

  13. Beautiful capture, Bob! I love owls. This one has pretty coloring. BTW, in answer to you question about the name of the butterfly, it was a Tiger Swallowtail. Thanks for stopping by.

  21. What a precious image. One of the prettiest little owls I've seen. Is it as small as it looks? Don't have them here. Are they like our barred owls that come out during the daylight hours? Very nice.
