[Maine-birds] Short-eared Owl near Oyster Creek Damariscotta

I couldn't believe my eyes when I was driving and caught a glimpse of this flying owl. I immediately pulled over and watched. For the next 20 minutes or so this bird hunted all around me. Paying me no mind it perched several times and flew eventually disappearing out of sight. The area was somewhat open but not where I would expect to find this owl. Of course it was cloudy. This happened in a yard near Oyster Creek. This experience was amazing and unique.
