Given the date, the Burrowing Owl that we (Adrian, Hendrik, Oscar, Jamie
and I) found on Sunday was probably a migrant. It wasn't clarified in
Oscar's post, but we flushed the owl from the edge of a roadside ditch
after dark (we saw it in the headlights). Driving roads in good habitat
after dark might be a good strategy for finding Burrowing Owls in the
Willamette Valley; I know that's a good way to see them east of the
Cascades.
