EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot, we witness nature's stealthiest morning riser – the Little Owl! With its piercing gaze and majestic presence, this adult Athene noctua perches gracefully at the entrance of its nesthole in beautiful Oxfordshire, England. As dawn breaks over the picturesque landscape, our feathered friend seems to be contemplating its next move. This delightful image captures not only the essence of British wildlife but also showcases the harmonious coexistence between humans and nature. Nestled amidst a tree in June's warm embrace, this little raptor reminds us of how precious our natural surroundings truly are. With roots tracing back to both Africa and Asia, this Eurasian predator brings an exotic touch to English soil. Its distinctive markings make it stand out among other birds of prey as it guards its nesting spot with utmost dedication. As summer unfolds across temperate Europe and Eurasia, these cavities become bustling homes for owls like our protagonist here. The intricate network of holes within trees serves as a safe haven for these wise creatures who rule their domain with grace and precision. So let us take a moment to appreciate FLPA/Dickie Duckett's incredible talent in capturing such intimate moments from Mother Nature's theater. This enchanting photograph is a testament to her beauty that surrounds us every day – if only we stop long enough to notice!
