Barn Owl (Tyto alba) in Lone Valley Oak
Same tree, same cavity, two years earlier. A Barn Owl. This time, the owl showed more patience than I, and moved less, for six minutes. Then the owl gave up and went below, leaving me victorious in the staring contest. Here is a closeup. At the Lone Valley Oak, on Road F near Trail 15. 4/14/2017, 7:39:29 am.
