Eastern Screech Owl
Back in the early 1990s, while trying to find my place in this world, I was a part-time warden for a small preserve in New Hamburg, New York. Reece Sanctuary, situated along the Hudson River, was under the care of Putnam Highlands Audubon chapter of which I belonged.
One the first things I did in my position was to build a little box for screech owls—and I didn't have to wait long to get an occupant. Being a photographer, I had a Nikon F3 with a remote set up and so was able to get this shot of the little guy.
Doing a series of posts looking at my time as a series birder (though the photography is not so good I'm afraid). One image by Richard Koenig; taken most likely in 1991 or 1992.

This is an Eastern Screech Owl. The photo by @richardolsen was so clear that I really wanted to see how I could capture the feather detail. Hope you love this little guy. Thank you Richard, for letting me paint from your amazing photographs.

This is my 1st time getting this Eastern Screech Owl with both eyes slightly open. Any time I'm birding, I will peek up at it, when it's sitting out, sunning itself. Caught one eye open before, but usually, it has both of them closed. My last encounter, I was taking several frames of it, before it closed its eyes, and I realized there was a bee in the pics I took at the beginning, flying near its face. I was wondering if that's why the eyes were slightly open. The bee is blurry, because I was shooting at a lower shutter speed, so I didn't post that one. That actually would've been a cool photo! #nature_worldwide_birds #bird_captures #your_best_birds #elite_raptors #eye_spy_birds #allmightybirds #birds_fanatic #birdsofinstagram #planetbirds #ip_birds #massaudubon #birdselite #bestshotz_birds #birds_illife #total_birds #best_birds_of_world #raw_birds #birds_perfection #ethicalowlphoto #bestbirdshots #pocket_birds #birds_private #nuts_about_birds #owlsofinstagram #bird_brilliance #birds_adored #best_birds_of_ig #best_birds_photography #elite_owls #easternscreechowl (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgCQ0mbgZfq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Great release of this adorable Eastern Screech-Owl in Pembroke earlier this evening! This owl was hit by a car and brought to the Center after suffering eye trauma from the collision. After recovering from his injuries this owl needed to prove to us he could hunt well before being returned to the wild—tests that he passed with flying colors! You can attract Eastern Screech-Owls to your property by installing owl boxes—this species is a cavity nester and can’t survive without holes for nesting. In rare circumstances this species has been known to nest in wood piles, mailboxes, and even crates on the ground when suitable tree cavities are not available! swvawildlifecenter.org #easternscreechowl #owl #owls #gilescounty https://www.instagram.com/p/CaI0OFiJu4M/?utm_medium=tumblr
