I See You Watching Me

My favorite blip-spotter saw this owl dive down into our woods. He took out the binoculars and saw it perched on the side of a dead tree on the other side of our stream. The owl was brilliantly camouflaged behind a holly tree. It took a huge effort to capture as it hid behind the branches, blending perfectly into the forest. 
I grabbed my garden shoes, changed my camera lens, and ran down the hill. This was the last shot before the owl flew away.
