Christmas morning at Farmington was an “owly” experience for me – three birds, two species and a lifer. The lighting was poor all morning while I was there\u00a0but you’ll never catch me complaining about a three owl day, light or no light.<\/p>\n

Two of the three owls were Barn Owls – this is one of them. As is typical, this bird spent most of its time sleeping but\u00a0one time\u00a0it looked up and squinted at me and that was the best look I got at its eyes (almost none at all).<\/p>\n

The second\u00a0Barn Owl of the morning was largely hidden in the phragmites so I cropped pretty tightly on this bird\u00a0in an attempt to minimize some of the clutter.<\/p>\n
