Owls/Aurora/Arapahoe

[Karl Stecher Jr.]

At 0030 this morning, my daughter had a barn owl fly across in front of her car on Smoky Hill just east of Pheasant Run, Aurora.

 

At 0600, a long-eared owl called several times near my front window. Location:  Aurora 4-5 blocks northeast as the crow flies (they are here nearly every day) or, on a straight line, from the intersection of Parker Road and Quincy, next to Cherry Creek State Park.

 

Also a blue jay here this AM, first I have seen at my new location.
