I have been a photographer my entire life from about age 14 until now and have been very fortunate to see many extraordinary moments in time. This image is the first time I have ever seen anything like it. This barred owl was roosting in a tree and fell asleep it rested its chin on an adjacent branch and continued sleeping.

Parenting must be going exhausting for this poor owl!

    Did NOT know birds could rest like that. I always picture them with their eyes closed and with one leg up. Thanks for sharing!
