[SBB] Burrowing owl (NO) at the mound at Shoreline

[Mark Bohrer <[[email protected]]>]

They're quite relaxed, but you may be treated to a staredown when you get 
close to burrowing owls. Last Sunday, I slowly walked my tripod within 20 
feet of this banded bird - he was at the mound across from the golf course 
clubhouse at Shoreline:

Another owl was present (probably a mate):

The banded bird had "CB" on a red band - last fall, a banded NO in the same 
place had "GK" on a red band. They're probably two different adults.
