The owl was hunting over the hill between the amphitheater parking lot and the vacant office buildings (off of Shoreline road, behind the kite flying area.) We saw 2 BURROWING OWLS too. The Short-Eared Owl was definitely bigger and lighter in colour. But, we could not get definite colouration due to the fading light. It was hovering and at one point swooped down for prey. Then it flew away with the prey in its legs. Then it came back and began hunting again. It almost gave us the impression that it had a nest somewhere. Has anybody else seen this bird lately?
