Peak a boo, Eye see you

Peakaboo2Small

Copyright Jeffrey Foltice

This little Screech Owl displayed its ability to hide in plain sight pretty well today as I photographed it peaking from inside a hollow tree trunk while it blended in with the bark patterns. This was one of many birds available to see for visitors to the Outdoor Discovery Center during the annual Winterfest which was held today.

  12. davidoakesimages says :

    Great humorous shot…..Owls try to avoid eye contact as they are so well camouflaged so when they remain still it is usually the eyes that give them away.

    Well camouflaged. You did well to capture that
