Smallish Owl with the characteristic long legs. The BUOW was spotted when it flew up from the ground onto a fence post along S. Colosseum Rd. It let me snap a few photos of it as it stared me down. The bird then flew to another post and then back to the ground before taking off to land out of site in vegetation. This is the first BUOW for me in Inyo.
