The Many Faces of the Owl (Five Photographs)

These photographs of an Eastern Screech Owl were taken over several days. I posted some photos of this owl in color back in the spring. I was struck then by its many expressions and the changes in its face. Like many creatures this owl is well camouflaged, its color almost matching that of the tree. Given those colors and texture my main concern was contrast and making sure the bird stood out. Black and white has captured what I was after.
