Code 1958 Asio flammula August Jugg Lake While was walking with my peregrine on my fist along the shoreline to the west of the lake in the late evening around 2100, two short-eared owls suddenly appeared hovering about 10 feet above head. Their presence was immediately surging! by the falcon which shivered and ruffled out her blood enafe feathers. The owls were apparently attracted by the falcon. They kept flying close to me and diving past. Dim twilight conditions. Then they would fly ca 30- 30 yds away and peck on boulders. When my falcon moved, or when I started out walking again, the owls would get up and fly away from me again. They kept this up for about 15 minutes while I walked to the north end of the lake.
