What’s better than one short-eared owl on Superb Owl Sunday? Two shorties!! They were fighting on this warmer evening in January in Loudon county, VA. I prob won’t get the shorties at Blackwater since I don’t want to risk it on Maple Dam Rd so this unassuming field with harriers and shorties will have to do. Too bad it’s all snow/ice-covered and you can’t drive down to the prime photo spot right now.
