Burrowing Owl at Calavera Preserve

Yesterday, Gail thought she spotted a Burrowing Owl in a field at Calavera Preserve.  We went back this afternoon with binoculars and small camera, and there it was, in the same area.

 There are a number of large burrows in this area.  We saw claw marks,  and small bones around several, but no pellets.

The center of the picture is where we saw the owl (quadrant G7 of the Calavera grid).  It is great, and almost strange seeing green grass!
