Description
A giant saguaro cactus on the hill by my home houses an adorable Western Screech Owl
(Megascops kennicottii). Here I caught him at around 8:30 am, trying to get to sleep. Even though his nest was probably about 20 feet off the ground, I imagine he was thinking, “Can’t you see it’s past my bedtime?!” If you look closely, you can see that one eye is open just a little more than the other one. Therefore “Sleepy Eye” is the title of this photo which was taken on February 22, 2019.

Thanks, William! If you're ever in the Sonoran Desert, just take a hike and start looking in the holes of saguaros - I'm sure you'll find some!
