There’s something about a screech owl that just always looks so grumpy!!
I feel like he’s saying, “Hey lady, keep on walking! I’ve got one more hour of sunlight and then I’m going hunting!”
Western screech owl (in a saguaro cactus), Arizona, March, 2025
They are very important parts of the desert ecosystem! I hope to someday soon get to go to that part of the country myself and see them in person, along with all the fancy rock formations and canyons.
