This little owl is only eight inches high and hunts at night eating mostly mice. They migrate to Iowa in the winter from Northern Minnesota and Canada and return north in March. This one was found and photographed a couple weeks ago in Ida County by Robert Gillespie.

Andropogon gerardii, commonly known as big bluestem, is a flowering stalk that grows 3-7 inches tall. The tips of the flower stalk closely resembles the foot of a bird, which makes this perennial earn its other nickname, turkeyfoot. This photo was taken around the area of Stone State Park by longtime INHF member, Robert Gillespie of Sioux City.
