Little owls are not bothered by the presence of humans, so they often settle nearby. Utility poles often serve as their perches for resting and hunting. The footage was taken during the day in sunny weather, so it was decided to shoot in a high-key style. The abandoned electrical structure added a graphic element, and the wind ruffled the bird's feathers slightly, giving it a more mischievous look.

I have been passionate about wildlife photography for about eight years. Most of my photographs were taken in my native Belarus, but recently I moved and am now looking for new places to shoot in other countries. I enjoy both "stalking" photography and sitting in a hide, observing wildlife without interfering with their world with my presence.
