Eurasian Eagle-Owl, Day (and night) 11

Superbowl Sunday was delightful since the park was empty. Flaco was roosting in a tree further west than the White Pine. It was higher and further than before, but it attracted a Cooper’s Hawk who made a few passes at Flaco.

Flaco regurgitated a pellet and at fly did a loop around the roost site before landing on a rock. I missed getting a photo after he was flushed by a dog. Soon we had him catching and eating a Brown Rat on the ball fields.

After eating, he went up on a dugout fence before going off to hunt again. I left but reports are he hooted a bit soon there after.
