camouflage



Why a thing is how it is, is often a mystery.

And looks can be deceiving.

That's true with screech-owls (21 known species). They look how they look for good reason: camouflage. That's the goal. Blending into one's environment is a key to staying out of harm's way, which is why I look like a fading white leather sofa with matching beige afghan.

What a great photo! This post makes me think I should start wearing muted colors. My life might be simpler if nobody could find me!
