Birds that are usually awake during the night are very difficult to photography and I am happy that I was able to take some pictures of this little owl in the dusk one day in summer. This owl usually perches in an elevated position ready to swoop down on any small creature it notices. It feeds on prey such as insects and earthworms, as well as small vertebrates including amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals.
Noctual birds are very special for me since it is very difficult to take some pictures of them. In the night it is often too dark to get some images and during the day these birds are hiding and very difficult to find. There is only a short time window in the morning and the evening when you are able to find them and take pictures of them.
