Absolutely my favorite time of year is when I know that if I go outside there is an owl. It’s like a live-action Where’s Waldo: if I have the time to look, I will find someone. This is Simon, and he looks to be napping, but unlike his normal nearby-in-case-someone-calls location, this spot has a direct line of sight to the nest as well.
