I stopped at a few birding spots this morning and one of them provided nice looks at a Eastern Screech Owl. It was nestled in a very old crab apple tree in a natural cavity. It was out enough to catch some very nice sun. It was a cold morning with temps of 16 degrees, sunny skies and a good wind at times. Image was taken on January 26, 2025
Can you find the Eastern Screech Owl?
One of my birding stops today gave great views of a Eastern Screech Owl. It was perched in a spruce tree along a road. It was enjoying the morning sun on a cold day with temps around 18 degrees, some wind at times but sunny skies that were warm at times. Image was taken on January 24, 2025.

I stopped at a few birding spots this morning that would be either short walks or birding from the car as it was so cold. An American Bald Eagle gave distant views along the Fox River downtown Waukesha. I also thought I would check on a Northern Saw-whet Owl that I found about a month ago, it was present at the same location tucked away in a tree. It was a very cold day with temps around 3 degrees, some wind gusts, with mostly sunny skies. Images were taken on January 20, 2025.
