[EBB Sightings] SHORT-EARED OWL in Livermore

My last, best, bird of the day was a Short-eared  Owl in Livermore around 
5:40 this evening (2/3/08).  I parked at the  intersection of Hartford & 
Lorraine.  Almost immediately I saw three  Northern Harriers flying around the field 
to the south, and within 10 minutes of  my arrival the Short-eared Owl appeared.

To get to this location, take N.  Livermore Blvd. from I-580.  Turn right on 
Hartford and continue until it  takes a sharp left turn and becomes Lorraine.  
Park at the large pullout at  the curve.  The bird was in field south of 
there.

Good  birding,
