Great Horned Owl nails down a spot to nap

Great Horned Owl nails down a spot to nap

To understand that title, you might have to view this image full screen. Look at all those nails sticking out of the roof!

Certainly you would not think this is a particularly comfortable spot but the owl didn’t seem to mind one bit. In fact, it never once opened its eyes or even turned its head while I was watching it.

It is kind of exciting to think this owl, and hopefully a mate, will opt to setup a home in this little shed on the Colorado plains. It has some nice viewing and, if little ones come along, would make for some cool captures.
