I miss the day....


 I so miss being able to go out to the strip mining area and see these Short-eared owls in the fall.  I think it has been 10 yrs. since I last saw one.

    Oh, how odd/fab that you posted an owl today - for last night, I was listening to our local owl hoot happily for over an hour! I understand your feeling of lack at getting 'oot and aboot'... YAM xx

  4. I have only seen one owl in the wild, and the ones in our yard now. I watched all five yesterday and it was amazing. I think the reason is where we are the owls hunt at sun up and i would not be in the preserves at the time they are up...

  7. The owl does look grand in flight. It is a shame you no longer see them. Do you know why?

  11. Oh wow, what a fantastic photo this is. I would love to see one. That would be something to see them flying. or even to watch them in a tree for that matter.
