Short Eared Owl - Asio flammeus
Over much of its range, short-eared owls occurs with the similar-looking long-eared owl. At rest, the ear-tufts of long-eared owl serve to easily distinguish the two (although long-eared owls can sometimes hold its ear-tufts flat). The iris-colour differs: yellow in short-eared, and orange in long-eared, and the black surrounding the eyes is vertical on long-eared, and horizontal on short-eared. Overall the short-eared tends to be a paler, sandier bird than the long-eared.
The short-eared owl occurs on all continents except Antarctica and Australia; thus it has one of the most widespread distributions of any bird. A. flammeus breeds in Europe, Asia, North and South America, the Caribbean, Hawaii and the Galápagos Islands. It is partially migratory, moving south in winter from the northern parts of its range. The short-eared owl is known to relocate to areas of higher rodent populations. It will also wander nomadically in search of better food supplies during years when vole populations are low.
Hunting occurs mostly at night, but this owl is known to be diurnal and crepuscular as well. Its daylight hunting seems to coincide with the high-activity periods of voles, its preferred prey. It tends to fly only feet above the ground in open fields and grasslands until swooping down upon its prey feet-first. Several owls may hunt over the same open area. Its food consists mainly of rodents, especially voles, but it will eat other small mammals such as mice, ground squirrels, shrews, rats, bats, muskrats and moles. It will also occasionally predate smaller birds, especially when near sea-coasts and adjacent wetlands at which time they attack shorebirds, terns and small gulls and seabirds with semi-regularity. Avian prey is more infrequently preyed on inland and centers on passerines such as larks, icterids, starlings, tyrant flycatchers and pipits.

We saw that tiny guy during our journey through the forest. He seemed lost. Either slept till the day time and forgot to come back into his hole. We found the closest one and brought him there. Hope he is all well now.
I call this house the ‘holey molely’ house. Not because there are a lot of moles in there, but because there are a lot of holes in the house.
In fact, I didn’t see one mole, but I do think I caught a glimpse of a red fox. He might have built his den in this house, or maybe not. I guess it could have been a dog hunting for moles. I didn’t get close enough to find out.
I just recently saw this house as the summer vegetation began to die back. I hope you can see it as well. If not, just pretend it is there and give it a fave anyway :)))
The bridge over the River Mole of 14 arches and some intriguing lights on the walls . Tried to capture the receding row of lights , however they do drop from view a bit . Take a look anyway though .
Le Môle (1863 m) est un point de repère dans la vallée de l'Arve , il se voit de très loin à la ronde.
La montée au Môle est une jolie excursion à faire, la vue en haut à 360° y est magnifique.
De près, on distingue 3 sommets : de gauche à droite, le Petit Môle, le Grand Môle (appelé plus communément le Môle), et le Môle de Marignier.

The "Môle"
The Mole (1863 m - 6112 ft) is a landmark in the Arve Valley, it can be seen from far away. The climb to the summit of the Môle is a nice excursion. On the top, there is a gorgeous 360° view.
Up close, there are three summits : the "Petit Môle", the "Grand Môle" (more commonly known as the "Môle") and the "Môle of Marignier".

A return to The Splash on the Rive Mole and things are a lot calmer now than when I visited back in December last year and February this year . Back then it was a raging torrent and in full flood !!
There were many trees down here and one of them is visible the the water takes the course straight ahead , to the right the main route goes under the bridle way bridge .
If Mole couldn't go down to the riverbank with his friends. He'd Stay Home and make new ones in the garden! ;0)
