Greetings All:
Keep an eye out for Flammulated Owls in the region: one record often
leads to others in what seems to be an irruptive pattern. They tend
to like relatively low (5-15 foot) perches in densely foliated trees
such as liveoak and willow when they are on the move through our
region.

Today a Flammulated owl was rescued in NW Lubbock. Obviously not chase-able
but that would of been cool. I believe this represents the third record for
Lubbock county and a handful for the region. Seems to be a good year, as one
was at melrose, and at least one on El Paso this fall.
Good birding,
