This is not my pet. This is an owl that had visited us before. I waited for this moment and had to be vigilant if I hear it's hoot and screech. When I did, went out and found it perching in our mulberry tree. I had to be very careful and slow in my actions as I wouldn't want to scare it away. Thankfully, it stayed long enough for me to take photos. This was my last photo of this bird. I think it was its way of saying goodbye as well because we haven't had a visit from this owl or any other owl since then.
