Absolutely Amazing!
The photo I strive to find is that of an owl. I have one that sits atop the church behind my house on the steeple at night. Too far away and too dark, but I will get him one day.

Great capture. I believe that is the smallest owl. At least in N. America. I have only seen two. One sat like that and it seemed pretty docile. I didn't get a picture because I had left my camera in the motorhome and it was getting too dark to go back and get it and back to take the picture. I envy you this is an excellent shot. Bob

This really speaks to me-great composition combined with muted colors and then the bright eyes effectively holds your perusal in place,Background complements crispness of branches in forground
