There was a Spotted Eagle-Owl catching its nap. You can see this is this bird's regular spot because of the white splashed on the steel girders. I dashed to the car, grabbed my camera and came back to take photos, many of them!
The owl opened a beady eye when it saw a lady snapping away below
Shoppers were entering and leaving the shop, yet the owl continued to sleep above
I'm linking my post to Wild Bird Wednesday here
Happy Wednesday to you all!

Birds do occasionally choose the weirdest places to hang out. I guess it wasn't too far from a regular hunting location. Dry and warm too?
