Small Owl at approx 9-10 inches in length, difficult to see in hedge rows and trees, but can often be seen on fences and posts like this one.
Feeds on insects, Beetles, worms, small birds and small rodents, watched this one yesterday getting small things from the field, a lot of grasshoppers about so may have been them.
Have watched two different Little owls this weekend, very slow days as they tend to doze a lot

Thanks Steve, yes it is a wild bird (see my comments), lives about half mile from my home, I watched it for a few hours both days over the weekend, it had a Kestrel fly in at it yesterday afternoon trying to steal what ever it had, I could not tell what the Owl had as it was about three times the distance I took this shot at.
When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Have a great time everyone and please fav this article so as many people can see the featured works. I would recommend seeing each one and faving them too.
