Short-Eared Owl on Seedskadee NWR (24031661715)
Description:
Summary[edit] Description: A short-eared owl on Seedskadee NWR has just caught a meadow vole during the last light of dusk. It looks around cautiously for a few minutes to determine if any other predators have noticed its success, before starting to eat. As the temperatures will drop well below zero this night, a full meal of a meadow vole will help it to maintain body condition for another night. Photo: Tom Koerner/USFWS.
