Eurasian Eagle-Owl, Day (and night) 9

Friday, Flaco continued to roost in a White Pine and then after exploring a bit ended up spending most of his time on a ballfields lawn. He would go up into trees now and again, but kept returning to the lawn. He ignored the trap on the lawn, and hunted. Eventually he caught a Brown Rat.

As he mantled the prey, the Wildlife Conservation Society staff tried to net him but he escaped from them.
