~Digiscoped with my iPhone through Karen Miller’s Zeiss spotting scope, Great Horned Owl in the black dirt, 9\/9\/15. As you can see there is something going on with the birds left eye, if anyone has any thoughts what might be going on there, please comment. ~\u00a0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

QUICK POST:<\/strong> After my golf match tonight, I called Karen Miller to see if she had relocated the 17 American Golden-Plovers<\/strong> (!!!) that Bruce Nott had located in the black dirt earlier in the day. She had not, but she HAD located a GREAT HORNED OWL.<\/strong> I didn’t think I would arrive before it was too dark, but I decided to try for the bird. I joined Karen and Diane Bliss and we got incredible looks at this magnificent creature, what a big beautiful beast. Wilma Amthor joined us and got her lifer GHOW, so congrats to Wilma! I was, of course, wishing I had my camera to get some photos. Karen offered her scope so I could try to digiscope it. I was pretty happy with the results; I’ve tried with my own scope and never had any decent results. What a great, fun night. Huge thanks to to Karen and Diane for locating the bird and letting me know about it. I am actually out of commission through the weekend (I’m going away on a golf trip), so this was a great way to go out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
