Eastern Screech Owl Photos

A species that's probably around more than you might think.  I've had tremendous luck finding these guys in all the old mature trees in the McKennan Park area of Sioux Falls.  Note there are two color morphs...red, and gray...but there are also intermediate birds.  I have photos of both red and gray morphs below, as well as an intermediate bird.
