[va-bird] Short-eared Owls, Fauquier Co

Late this afternoon I paid a visit to Crenshaw Rd where I parked about 1/2 mile 
north of Rectortown in northern Fauquier County.  When I first got out of my 
car (about 5:30 pm) I didn't see any Short-eared Owls but soon heard one 
vocalizing (a sound like a small dog barking) and quickly found it sitting on 
the ground.  Within a few minutes I clearly saw at least five Short-eared Owls 
flying back & forth over the fields and perched in the trees bordering the 
field.
