Description
Portrait of a Red Eastern Screech Owl with rustic brown background. I photographed this adorable little raptor in a nature preserve in Rockville Maryland. Screech owls are plentiful here in Maryland but they are heard far more often than they are seen. This one happens to be red in color but the Gray Screech owl is often perfectly camouflaged against tree bark, The Eastern Screech Owl uses an array of calls ranging from a soft trill to an eerie, almost frightening, screech similar to that of a baby crying.
