I origianlly joined this site back around 2003. I survived the first great software purge of 2007 (or there abouts) when many were lost but then fell victim to the second in 2012.
I was able to get my account access restored in 2015 and posted for a bit, but then almost 2 years ago in another software issue I once again lost the ability to log in.
Tonight with tears in my eyes I gave in an created a new account. When I logged in rather than a new account I was logged in under my old account which the software had been insisting did not exist…
Anyway I hope to rejoin this community and discuss model stuff until the forum software once again deems me unworthy.
I think it is some variety of Pygmy Owl. We have Coastal Pygmy Owls here locally and they are neat little guys. Big owl attitude stuffed into a softball sized body.
