Short-eared Owl Photos

Short-eared Owls have kind of a mysterious reputation for me. They're seemingly nomadic, showing up in force in one location, and then disappearing without a trace. They're not a species I usually go out looking for, but a species you happen to run across, typically late in the evening in the hour before sunset. A species I've seen all over the state, and...even in Hawaii, where the "Pueo" (their version) lives.
