The Eurasian Eagle-Owl, Flaco roosted in the same American Elm he’s been using for the last few days. Its understory is open and without leaves, so as he wakes up, rather than flying to another tree he has been branching within the tree. I’ve seen White-footed Mice below the tree and he seem to be looking for them before he leaves the tree.

Tonight, at fly out he went to the roof of the Recreation Center and then flew off to the northeast. We searched for about a half hour and came up empty, but then found him in plain sight on a backstop. He moved around the backstop and one of the adjacent infields, briefly perching in a London Plane tree. But for most part he didn’t move around very much. It was hot and you see the gular fluttering after even the briefest flight.
