Remember the Mountain Lion stories a month or two back?
I wouldn't have believed the following story if I hadn't
seen it myself. This months story comes from the same
area as the mountain lion event...
Out in the middle of the forest road on the way up to
the remote repeater site...
The Forestry folks strap a live mouse to the end of a
very long wood pole and hold it up into the air while
making Owl noises.
The local male owl swoops in and grabs the mouse off the
pole thinking the Owl noises are from a non resident male
owl cutting in on his action.
The Forestry folks watch to see if the owl takes the
mouse home to a nest or eats it in a nearby location,
which tells them a lot about the condition of the forest.
Go figure...
cheers,
