For some reason, my question went unanswered by this fuzzy fellow. 😀
This past weekend I tried for a fourth time to get pictures of a rather popular eastern screech owl in northern Colorado. And, for the fourth time, I saw nothing. I spent 3 ½ hours staring at a hole in a tree with only some pics of this squirrel and the moon to show for it – on top of the two-hour roundtrip drive. Sigh. Such is the life of a wildlife photographer!
