The Audubon Starr Ranch in Orange County is home to a great diversity of wildlife, as evidenced by some recent motion-activated photography. A Golden Eagle was recently caught on camera. Also captured on film were some cougars, courtesy of the Southern California Cougar Project, which is following cougar movements to answer questions on landscape connectivity, health and disease. More photos, and some of cougars, after the jump.
