Short Earred Owl and Mange Coyote.
I want to thank Jamie for this shot, it shows a coyote with mange passing just yards away from the Short Earred Owl we were watching. I'd like to point out that this shot was about 350 yards out, in very harsh light conditions. Jamie usually produces much higher quality photos! The idea here was to record what we saw and gain a confirmation that this was in fact a Short Earred. It marks the first time either of us have seen this bird.
Recognized the quality is not great, but thought you might like to see this shot/behavior, the owl did not fly, the coyote just kept on walking. Let me know if you think I should delete.
