There are times when not only people can look grumpy if disturbed. This Owl sure didn't leave any room for doubt about having it's picture taken....it's nest is in the bush behind our house. :)

Yes we hear her/him hooting at night, kind of a haunting sound when all is quiet. Loretta, we used a zoom lens to get that picture, at first we didn't think there was anyone in the nest and then this head popped up... guess Owls don't like being disturbed during the daylight hours. :) This one is a Horned Owl.

Wow! Great photo, maybe the "grumpy" part is simply over having to see all that sunshine in the day time?

But it's pretty!
