[va-bird] Short-eared Owls - Louisa County

Belated post from February 18, 2005.  Discovered messages were not getting 
through.
Made it out to Route 617 off of Rt. 15 in Louisa County this 
evening.  Although a bit on the cold side (35 degrees), the wind was within 
tolerable range.

Tonight a total of five Short-eared Owls made an appearance, some coming in 
close to the observers standing alongside the road.  At one point we had 
four in same field of view.  Viewing through spotting scope we managed a 
quick glimpse of one perched on distant post.

Observers included John Pitts and his father, Dr. and Mrs. Mitchell Byrd 
and Linda.
