    I took a chilly walk around mitigation marsh this afternoon after the main
    rainstorm, hoping to find the Burrowing Owl. I didn't find it anywhere along
    the road but, to my surprise, I found it in the same burrow I last occupied
    by an owl back in March 2004. I'm assuming the owl just relocated and there
    aren't actually 2.
    
    The burrow is best seen from the path along San Leandro Creek. From the SE
    corner of the marsh, go north a couple hundred feet to a white distance
    marker that says 18-80, then look straight west and scan the berm.
    
    Eurasian Wigeon is still with the American Wigeon flock.
