Bored barred
Took today off from work (out late last night at a choir concert), and went over to Commonwealth Lake this morning. I heard active chickadees in the trees on the north end of the park. Didn't get any shots of them (pretty dark there, and they move fast), then spotted a large dark mass in one of the trees. Turns out it as the elusive barred owl I'd heard of others having seen. Got a series of it as it posed for me. Eventually it got bored with me, so I moved on. By the way, this is a lifer for me!
