Dennis,
Magnificent image. Very nice pose, beautiful colors, tack sharp, though perch is not natural, looks good. Superb BG and colors are nicely complimenting to owl.
If mine, would crop on both LH and RHS.

Regards,
Satish.

Smashing Little Owl Dennis, bird is really neat and sharp and I do like the BG, what is the perch?

Cheers Keith.

Hi Keith ,to tell you the truth I have no idea ,I found it in the area ,as it used to be a old working quarry , I just stuck it in a old cut of tree trunk with a hole in and surrounded the the trunk with mealworms

Looks like an old well worn hammer head, but whatever it looks right.
