Why did it let the mouse go?

Little american beauty

I saw Scott's hummingbird presentation at Louisville Library the other night. Much admiration and appreciation for Scott and his talents. Me, I just contribute observations - photos and audio clips - to iNaturalist.

How do I become an naturalist over the next 6 months can you contact me brennen.harman1@gmail.com

Great footage

Gawd are they cute! I saw one recently just at the Oregon/California Border in the forest next to the Winchuck river. 2 birds flew past my legs at high speed one chasing the other. One I think was a sparrow, he got away, but the owl got caught up in the brush,( sort of fumbling), which the sparrow easily navigated through. I really didn't know what I was looking at. At 1st I thought perhaps it was a Thrush, but why would a thrush chase a sparrow? He just kinda sat there looking at me, couldn't seem to get back onto his feet and into the air. I thought perhaps he was a baby bird who fell from the nest. But then, looking closely I saw this salt shaker sized bird was in fact an OWL! I really could hardly believe it! Double take, triple take, no way, an owl? He moved to a higher a branch, and then yet a higher one and I talked to him for several minutes before he flew away. I now know he was Pygmy Owl. Went back today to try to find him again this time armed with camera and binoculars but no luck. We'll keep trying!

a very good video indeed, thank you ...but you held that poor little owl for too long ! in fact torturing it, it was so affraid. Shorter please next time. Also i sometimes dont much trust in those banding, it may hurt them - due to humans only...Your work is amazing.

Brilliantly documented. I've been searching, and listening, for these little creatures for years.

If I was a rich man.... I'd set you up so you could do these kinds of projects all the time...I think it's great for a man to follow his passion, how much more when it's helping mother nature

Great video. Seeing you banding and measuring the young owl makes me miss banding birds.

Do what you love sounds much better than love what you do. Congratulations for following your mind.

You are an inspiration ! Thank you so much for what you do .

lovely

lovely tiny forest goblins!

very cool!

For me, I honestly wont be a nature or outdoor enthusiast. The fact I am a civilizationist, which is the term I gave it as to being a urban maturalist. I make a good note of how the local plants, buildings, structure, environment, terrain, and a history. I live in New York and we have a lots concrete building from the warnings of the Cuban missile attack in 60's. I also took note of the possible hazard shelters for disasters. I also know about the exits to an different states in case of evacuation. So I am a civilizationist even if I am a newbie outdoor enthusiast.

Any update?

suscription and like!

Imma study Koalas

My absolute favorite bird. No other bird is so tender to his partner. No other bird is so funny. For me, anyway. Thank you for releasing them.

Congratulations on all your efforts to help and preserve nature, wildlife and birds. A true naturalist, you are an inspiration to us all. Thank You. raymond

Some fellow get very little out of life.They have eyes for seeing,but notice nothing.They have ears for hearing,but what they hear goese in one ear and out the other.They have as many little gray brain cells as a naturalist have,but their mind remain empty because they have no curiosity,no power of concentration,no ability to store what they learn.But not a naturalist,his eyes and ears are keen,his mind full of questions that he want to have answered.He want to know all about the world in which he live and he is not satisfied with finding out about the " what it is ? ",he want to know the " why is it ? ",as well.
