Long Eared Owl and Chuckars



Went around the Provo Dike at noon today.  Long Eared Owl perched in dead tree on the last stretch going West before you reach the Southwest corner.  Owl was on south side about 100 yards from where the last approach west begins.  Said another way, if you were at the Southwest corner and went east, owl was about 100 yds before you would turn south.  Very visible going westabut harder to see if you were going east.  Also of interest were 4 Chuckars legging it down the road as the dike road begins on the airport side.  Don't know whether they were escapees or had been released, but it was fun to watch them run about 100 yards down the road just in front of the car.
