Short-eared Owl Stare

Christopher Dodds December 21, 2022

Here is another Short-eared Owl from my scouting trip for my Owls Galore workshops. There was a burst of flight activity when we got there and we had overcast conditions with a window of blue sky. These owls forage mainly on the wing: flying low over the ground, sometimes hovering briefly at heights of 6–100 feet. They are incredibly maneuverable in the air, dropping suddenly to capture prey or climbing to avoid pursuers. They also soar hawklike on their long, broad wings, a flight mode they probably use for migratory travel.

There are currently only two openings due to last-minute cancellations:

January 9 to 13, 2023 SOLD OUT!

January 16 to 20, 2023 SOLD OUT!

January 23 to 27, 2023 ONLY 1 SPOT LEFT!

January 30 to February 3, 2023 SOLD OUT!

February 6 to 10, 2023 SOLD OUT!

February 13 to 17, 2023 ONLY 1 SPOT LEFT!
