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

[Nancy Teater <[[email protected]]>]

Yesterday, Candice Basham and I visited the pair again at twilight as they 
were starting to become more active, stretching wings and legs. They were 
both on the mound closer to the bay. We stayed until one flew a short 
distance to a stake so it could get a better view of dinner possibilities.
