I've been inspired by Cliff (OttoC) to go through my bird photographs and select one. This auction is for an 11 inch by 14 inch photograph (printed on Kodak Royal matte paper) of a pair of Eastern Screech Owls seen along the Mystic Lakes in Medford, MA this past May. The gray Screech was seen regularly for several weeks. One morning, on my way by, I noticed 2 figures up in the hole. To my delight, this red Screech had joined the gray. I only saw them together on this one morning. For a couple of weeks afterwards, I'd see the gray rarely and the red more commonly. But never together. They moved on shortly after that and have not been seen since. We're assuming they went and found more private quarters to raise a family.

The winning bidder has their choice of either the horizontal or the vertical version. Please note this is a smaller photograph than the others I've been doing - I think the 12 x 18 would be too large for this subject. Oh, and these were photographed by (amh03)

Horizontal (low res) version:


Vertical (low res) version:
