This vertical image has layers of semi-opaque rusty red colored gas and dust that starts at the bottom left and goes toward the top right. There are three prominent pillars rising toward the top right. The left pillar is the largest and widest. The peaks of the second and third pillars are set off in darker shades of brown and have red outlines.

#Connect2Nature More Superb Owl's

Can you find them?

With all the love received by my Eurasian Eagle Owl pic yesterday, I thought I'd repost these 2 darling Eastern Screech Owl's.

Taken at the Canadian Raptor Conservancy.
