Outstanding pics all. I have always heard them referred to slangily as "dog owls". Because they are usually found in and around abandoned prarie dog burrows. Really very nice pics.

Love this series.

Guess another trip to Brian Piccolo Park is on my agenda in the not too distant future. I just with it would cool off a little though.

Wonderful set of photos! How did you run across these Owls? ...your backyard? somewhere near a lake?
