Description

A Western Screech-Owl. I almost walked right past this little guy on a hike today. It was about 10 feet away and just sat there while I took photos of it.

The details in this photo are really amazing though you said your were around 100 feet away.
That means your camera and lens must be really good.^^

The angle is good think. It shows somehow that these birds are really shy so they look for high places to sleep.That way nobody would bother them.
The colours in this photo are really natural which show the natural beauty of nature.
Maybe you could have add a frame around it. But in both way it's a really wonderful picture.
But somehow it looks that you disturbed him somehow. ^^* Anyways you did a good job here .
