Have you ever spotted a Flammulated Owl? For photographer Fei Cheng, the bird in these photographs was a lifer! Unlike other owl species, the Flammulated Owl feeds primarily on insects like crickets, moths, and beetles.
Where in Oregon can you find them? They have been found to breed on the eastern slope of the Cascades, as well as in the Blue and Wallowa mountains. You'll only find them here during breeding season as they winter in Mexico and Central America.
Perfectly said!
These little guys are colored and patterned so beautifully, yet it instantly blends into the scenery.
