Field Notes

Description:

Gray body with a black mask on the face. He was eating a sunfish.

Habitat:

Sitting in the grass near a lake, mostly oak trees and bald cypress around. We found it very strange he was just sitting there when we would be walking 10 ft away from him, but he didn't seemed concerned with us in the least bit since he had a nice big fish to eat.
