The shape of a Barred Owl can be seen through a dense tangle of branches. It has a broad, round head and a wide body that tapers down to the tip. A few details of the owl's feathers can be seen through gaps in the branches.
Got my first owl picture of the year today and it's...not good. #SticksHappen 🦉
A view of a yellow-rumped warbler is on a branch with its back to us so we can see the yellow feathers on its lower back and head. A couple small branches hide the bird’s face.
Butterbutt! He’s showing that Wyoming is not immune to #stickshappen 😄

The bird's striated coloring partially camouflages it as it sits among brown criss-crossed willow branches.

A White-breasted nuthatch is in search of tasty bug snacks in the bark of a Desert Willow. It is a gray and white small bird with a long pointed beak designed for probing in the crevices of tree bark.
Lovely catch, Michelle!
Ours is more shy and needs to hide behind sticks 😆 Proper orientation tho 😂 Seen yesterday.
