Another Short Eared Owl

First thing this morning a Sparrow Hawk was sitting on one of the Nature reserve posts on the beach viewable from our living room window.  Even at that distance the eyes looked menacing!

Left click to see those eyes!  
A quick walk up to the Spit hide and I found it already occupied......by 5 Magpies (on top not inside! )

Later in the mornig when out for a stroll with a visitor (non birder) a Short Eared Owl flew up from  the beach adjacent to the Little Lagoon....a nice find and the second time  in the past 10 days or so.
