More Saw-Whets and a Long Eared Owl
Thursday, March 8, 2012
Another successful evening of owl-spotting at the Owl Woods for Ann, despite the threat of rain. She spotted two saw-whets (and apparently the remains of a third that ended up in the belly of some predator) and even more impressive - a long-eared owl. Cool!
Note that the "ears" from which the long-eared owl gets its name are actually feathered tufts, rather than ears.
