This was one of the Eastern Screech Owl nests that I photographed this season. Unfortunately, I only was able to visit this site twice this year. On the second day, shortly after I started photographing this owlet, it climbed up to the top of the heart shape cavity. It was standing there for a little bit and was paying attention to my right. Shortly after, it took off and flew away to the nearby oak tree. Next year, I will make sure to spend more time at the nest.
