  1. Excellent photo, nice and sharp with a great background and composition. Believe it or not, this is actually the first owl photo on JungleDragon, so you just did a "specie introduction". Posted 14 years ago
  2. Looks very cute indeed.. Dilemma:
    "Does it deserve a spot in the Birds of Brutality photo list?"

The Little Owl is a bird which is resident in much of the temperate and warmer parts of Europe, Asia east to Korea, and north Africa. It is not native to Great Britain, but was first introduced in 1842, by Thomas Powys and is now naturalized there. It was also successfully introduced to the South Island of New Zealand in the early 20th century.
