Short-eared Owl

Dinner is served

This Short eared owl enjoys a mouse snack while hunting the Gettysburg National Military Park. SEO’s are one of the easier seen owls do to them hunting at dusk and dawn. Most Owls hunt only at night and are rare to see in the daylight hours.

Wow, great shot Jamie. Were you in a blind or wearing camouflage? Nicely detailed shot in low light.

Thanks Emil. I was Siting in my truck on the side of the road… I watched it hunting and was lucky enough to have it fly over to me and eat.
