Alert and Focused

There are times when it’s a waiting game which patience being required…sooner or later the Hawk Owl would likely turn up. You simply sit back and enjoy some coffee…waiting and watching for any movement.
After an hour and a half I was about to pull the plug… suddenly out of nowhere he/she shows up.

These owls hunt by both sight and sound…with very little to no snow I’m sure finding voles/mice is a much easier task.
Didn’t take long to realize that the owl was focused on a certain area…how long would the wait be ?

The answer to that will be in the next communication.

Cheers !
