Gorgeous shot! I love how the piercing blue sky contrasts the adorable pygmy owl, and that angle adds such an interesting aspect

I think there's an old horned owl that lives behind my apartment who hoots every night lol, but that's as close as I've gotten to seeing an owl in the wild. I'd love to see a pygmy or elf owl, but this pic will do for now

Yeah, we have Northern pygmy, just can't be 100% sure as the front is slightly turned but rest fits.
