For this weekend's photo I thought I would share a Short-eared owl on a fence post.

Es gibt gute und schlechte Tage für Windradkitsch. Heute ist ein guter. Eine Sumpfohreule ließ es sich nicht nehmen, dabei zu sein.

Glück beim Birden am Nachmittag, eine Sumpfohreule jagte neben einer Kornweihe über einer Brache 😍

I missed the lead up to this series (and should have had a faster shutter speed), so I am not sure if this is an unsuccessful attempt by a short eared owl to steal a meal from a northern harrier, or a successful attempt by a northern harrier to steal a meal from a short eared owl.

The falling grasses lead me to believe the harrier has stolen the meal, but it is not definitive.
