N.V.M. Where did you see the Long-Eared Owl? Everyone is able to find the Owl at Boundary Bay but I never end up seeing it. Several people informed me that its usually sitting in the bushes around the ditch but I can't seem to find the Owl.

It was just hanging around - didn't give a shit that there were 20 people surrounding it clicking away.

Jason, that looks like a Peregrine Falcon. i've come to know the Harriers quite well. and i'm looking and thinking, Harriers don't have "pants".
here, i too caught a fight over a rodent on saturday, albeit not a very great capture, but you can clearly see the Harrier's markings, especially through the tail. 
and yes, the owl gave it up too.

Yea thats definitely a Falcon. Awesome photos though Senna!
What's the deal with the Short-Eared Owls giving up their catch? As soon as the Owl finds a meal the Harriers come out of no where and swoop right in waiting for the Owl to drop its prey.
