Meet Oliver the screech owl. A local resident at the ranch in Brooks County. He sometimes plays nice and allows me to photograph him.

I enjoy seeing the variations people come up with, even for more traditional owl names. Oliver vs Owliver is a popular one, along with Otis vs Otus, as Otus was their original genus name until it got split up. The genus division debate was still going on from 1850-2003, so there are still many Screeches named a variation of Otis even though it is no longer considered correct taxonomy.
