At least 14 Short Eared Owls were at the Hardin Co. wetlands this evening many offering excellent, close views. One flying in front of my green Envoy was 5 foot from the hood attempting to land there! This is the 4'th straight year that they have been there.

Also there during a brief visit were:

5 Tundra Swans
1 Rough Legged Hawk  dark morph
5 Harriers
9 Lapland Longspurs
