Me: Sam, please look at the camera at least once.

Sam, every time we tried to get a picture: Nope.

Sam is a saw-whet owl, our smallest native species. He lost part of his wing and got to be an educational ambassador kept by my friend Nancy. Nancy has been teaching me about raptor handling and rehabilitation and let me hold Sam for awhile while we volunteered with our regional wildlife rehabilitator organization at an event.

#WildlifeRehab #SawWhetOwl #Adirondacks

Sunny and balmy 24 degrees; beautiful day for #birding at Jones Beach. Loons, cormorants, a mockingbird, and one unexpected #harrier but the #sawwhetowl eluded me and according to 3rd-hand info the #snowyowl hasn't shown its face yet. Pics to come shortly. #nybirding
