Pygmy Owl
My painting of a juvenile Pygmy Owl - the bird that helped launch the Sonoran Desert Conservation Plan. As Tucson keeps growing out into the desert, Pygmy Owl habitat has been destroyed. Pima County launched a conservation plan to protect it and other plant and animal species in the Sonoran desert. This little birdie has just left the nest.
