This Barred Owl stretching a leg is the same Barred Owl I posted about a few days ago (Barred Owl Hunting A Roadside Ditch). It was near the same ditch.

The Barred Owl was in an area that I couldn’t see it when I first drove by. I spotted it on my return trip. 

It was near the four-corner intersection of the auto tour road (Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge).

I had my camera and lens resting on a bean bag draped over the open window of my pickup.

Barred Owl Hunting A Roadside Ditch

I was driving the auto tour road at the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma when I spotted this Barred Owl hunting a roadside ditch. The ditch was full of water, so I’m guessing it was catching Crayfish. I have seen and photographed Barred Owls with Crayfish during this time of year.

This Owl was low in the tree and was eye level. I parked in the road and got a few quick photos before it flew away.

I had my camera and lens resting on a bean bag draped over the open window of my pickup.
