Barred Owl: "Persistent"

Persistent in their aims, yet I must know, why is this so?

A family of trees, forever green in the coldest of seasons.

The family holding a hunter of the night, silent on the wing.

Persistent in their aims, yet I must know, why is this so?

I took these photos January 18, 2025. I regularly pass by these pine trees. This is where I played peek-a-boo with a Barred Owl late last year.

Luck was on my side. A Barred Owl was perched in this pine. Can you see the owl?

I think this Barred Owl may remain in the conservation area. The local crows harrass this owl, but the owl is persistent. I hope the owl remains in the area.
