The look you get from a female Northern Saw Whet Owl when she see's your taking her picture. : )

My posse has been seeing these charming little owls and expect for this winter to be pretty epic with so many different species.

Their plumage is mottled and provides excellent camouflage! They primarily are found in more dense forests, particularly in Conifers and mixed woodlands. They prefer areas with a thick understory for cover.

Game face: on!

Saw Whet is in a tough part of the bracket, but it's got as good a chance as any! It's very different than the owls it's up against, so that could work to its advantage!
