Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Birds&Bugs. This tiny #pygmyowl was pretty proud of the grasshopper it had caught and cached on the branch below.

Some of the hillsides around here turn the nicest colours just before sunset. I sure appreciated this pygmy owl picking a decent perch where I could use those hills as a background.
