EASTERN SCREECH OWL
(Otis asio)
Here's an interesting photo of an Eastern Screech Owl perched in a hole, created by a missing branch in a Sycamore Tree, in Hollis, New Hampshire, in the north-eastern U.S.A.   The bird's feathers echo the tree bark texture and colouring, providing a measure of camouflage and protection for the small owl.
