Amherst Island (Kingston area) - I was pleasantly surprised to find nearly a dozen Short-eareds cruising a couple of favourite areas. There was a good number during the winter but a few could remain to breed. I had a couple of them close by while I was watching the Say's Phoebe.

Amherst Island - I returned to try for some additional shots of this interesting species. I was treated to about a dozen birds hunting over an open field.

Amherst Island - I switched from shooting Short-eared Owls to this fox for a short time. While focusing on the fox, an owl swept low overhead, showing its displeasure with this competitor for the abundant meadow voles.

We were moving at a good clip when this guy was spotted. In order not to flush him we backed up a good ways past him, then approached to a reasonable distance gauging whether he was nervous. After a few pics we moved off without causing him fly. Near Benton Lake NWR, Montana.

Amherst Island - The birds rest briefly after making several passes over the fields before resuming the hunt.

Amherst Island - There have been a few birds recently but we had 11 today. That's a high number for this species. The owl is looking directly at me, responding to the camera shutter firing.

Not quite as sharp as I'd like, but the bird perched for about 5 seconds before leaving.

Wolfe Island - Kingston. Despite multiple trips there this winter, it was only the second time I came across a Short-eared Owl.

Kingston - Wolfe Island - a great opportunity to study this interesting species. This is the first time in my many trips to the island that I've had an opportunity to photograph a Short-eared Owl.

i'm guessing this is a juvenile based on size and the fact that it sat on this fencepost for at least an hour while I was walking the dyke.
