It's not often you see an owl hanging out with a songbird. This Blue Jay and Pygmy Owl seem to be unbothered by each other's presence for the moment.

Being as big as a Pygmy Owl isn't the highest achievement... ๐Ÿ˜

The jays are big enough to be the boys in my yard though. I love those guys.

That person might just be really close and the owl really far away!
