I hope to see one in the wild someday. We have them here year round but I have yet to see one. We considered installing an owl nesting box but I don’t want to lose our song bird visitors by attracting more predator birds to the yard.
there is a nest of them at the end of Murtland Ave/street in point breeze.. Off of Reynolds. there every year. on right side of street.. Can't recall if it is a dead end street but you will find it.. ENJOY
Thanks Heidi! I was most surprised to see this owl after so long. I thought they may have left the area. I'm glad this owl is here and hope I see them again!
Thanks Agnes and agreed - they were napping most comfortably. :)
"What can be done but to let the present moment seek and find you.". Truer words were never spoken. Much appreciated.
Thank you Michael and much appreciated.

That's exactly what I was thinking! I love the concept of the present searching for my presence.
Thanks Scot and sometimes it feels like that!
My favorite owl! 😍
They are such a treat to see perched like that napping and enjoying the day. :)

An owl I love to hear, they are so distinct
Agreed James.
who who was that hiding. Wonderful viewing. adding to your owl love
Thanks Nettie - their hiding spots and camouflage is amazing. I wonder how many times I've passed by them without seeing them.

Did I forget to say Pittsburgh?😵💫
Oh, to be nestled amongst a family of trees :-) Lovely!
Thanks Joni B - they definitely look cozy!
Fantastic, Neil! I really like the patience that it took over a year to see this screech owl. Well worth the wait.

They blend in so well, but hopefully you'll see them again before another year goes by.
I feel like we're walking in parallel lines! Love this.
Thanks Ann and fully agree!
I always wonder how many owls I’m totally oblivious to as I hike. Beautiful post, Neil!
Same here, Nathaniel and thanks!
Good eye, Neil- Owls are fascinating.
Thanks Robin and agreed they are fascinating.
This has comforted my soul. Much thanks,
Thank you Nancy and very much appreciated. Happy to share.
