Most of these owls migrate but a few stick around through the winter. They are usually difficult to find, spending the day tucked close to the trunk of a dense evergreen where branches make a clean shot all but impossible. After finding the bird I quickly took a few photos then left it alone.

Was walking by a thick tangle and out of the corner of my eye saw the bay colouring that told me something stood out in the tree. Happily he had prey in his feet. Reifel Bird Sanctuary, BC, Canada

During the day, saw-whet owls hide in the trees and don't move. Getting out in the open during the day would mean lots of trouble for these birds! This one spent the winter at Tommy Thompson Park in Toronto.

Reifel Bird Sanctuary, Delta BC
Although they are at Reifel most winters, they are hard to see. This sighting was a lifer for me.
