Eurasian Eagle-Owl, Night 83

I arrived after fly out to learn Flaco had eaten a Brown Rat he had roosted with just before leaving for the evening.

He was in a tree over the drive when I arrived and quickly switch to a tree he likes to use a little bit up the road. He then spent over two hours in the construction site. The construction is happening at a fast past, and every evening we see changes. New walls, new materials and new locations for the excavators. Flaco ended up on familiar perches but newly constructed ones as well. I can keep track of him only about 25% of the time, so he could be hunting and eating out of sight.

Later in the evening, he hooted from a tree for about ten minutes before settling down in a tree overlooking the dumpsters at the compost heap. He was comfortable staying on the same perch for over an hour.
