After dropping off Elizabeth at the bus station for a trip to San Antonio, I stopped by Oak Cliff Founder's Park (https://friendsofoakcliffparks.org/founders-park). Crazy hot, but a few critters were still out.

It was on/near the trail ahead of me and then I startled it. There was a lot of squawking as it flew past me into a tree. No time for a photo.

Owl Or Baby Yoda?
Yesterday in late afternoon, Frick woke up & peeked out to see if it was safe to show himself. I just happened to be out at the time. Ran in for my camera & got this shot as he raised up enough for me to see his eyes. Almost burst out laughing because he looked like Baby Yoda with his ear tufts that way.
