    This is a re- work of one I posted a while back.

    Just another brick in the wall

    Thought it was at least a bit different !(Nice if you like bricks !!)
    This is just a small part of the barn wall where they would emerge from. They had the choice of about 160 holes. It got like a game guessing which hole to look at !!This is one of the adults. At least the young used a row lower down.

    Ha, I do remember this from the last time you posted. Great image of a little guy, love the sharpness and details including cobwebs in some of the holes to the right. Good eye contact with the owl.

    So rare that I like an image with such heavy man-made elements but this is so sweet and just invites the viewer to peek in at the little one. I do find that the open row on the bottom distracts me...my eye keeps drifting downward to see if anything is hiding in there too. I'd crop to just above that row. Really, John, this is so much fun to view..thanks for sharing it .

    Hi John,
    Agree - a really fun image with the owl nicely placed in the frame. Cropping out the bottom holes would work for me too. Nice one.
