The Agassiz Burrowing Owl reported by Gary Kalyn last week may have been seen again in east Chilliwack. A competent observer who is familiar with the species saw the bird huddled under the overpass on Hwy. 1 at Gibson Rd. on Tuesday Nov. 20. It was on the south, or right hand side if travelling eastward.
With any luck it may stay in the area and have it's leg bands identified. (Assuming it is banded)

Update to the update: Had a call from Gerry Powers of the OWL rescue society to tell me that the reported Burrowing Owl has been picked up and is in fact a Barn Owl and is being treated for it's injuries. He says it should make a full recovery.
