Observation details

Barred owl first seen perched on telephone wire. We stopped the car and watched the owl for a few minutes. While observed, the owl hunted and caught a Microtus sp. and returned to the wire. It sat for another few minutes holding the Microtus in its beak before carrying it out of sight into some mixed-composition forest behind the telephone wires.
