Welcome to Sunday! I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. This image is from July 2019 at a local wildlife refuge. This short-eared owl was perched on a road sign along a very lightly traveled dirt road. I pulled over and, so as to not disturb it, opened my sunroof and photographed out of the top of the car. I was there for a quite a while and the bird was still perched when I left. I did see it eventually fly off from way day the road quite a while later. I was on a mission last summer to find and photograph short-eared owls and this bird was probably the most cooperative one I found.
