Great find and well shot.

Pretty easy to miss them in trees and bushes, I spent several weeks watching a pair of Barn Owls most evening, one time I noticed something move in a a hedgerow near to me and it was a Little Owl, it was sat there most evenings afterwards, so I assume it had been there all the time, never did get a shot of it though.

You can miss them easily. In this case I know they were around, because I made a nestbox. They have already 5 chicks. Isn't it great?

Great find indeed. I particularly like the contrast between the darker, greenish bark texture and the loghter, warmer feather patterns.
