Burrowing Owls (If they could speak)

I saw these Burrowing Owls at Vista View Park yesterday. As I tried to get closer they gave me some "nasty" looks. What were they trying to tell me?

"I may be distracted but I still have my eyes on you." (1st image)

"She may be sleeping but I am still watching you." (2nd image)

lol. These are very cool. Love the first shot the most. These are the kind of birds I would love to photograph. I am so envy.

Come to south Florida and you will see a lot of them. I saw about 7 at three different spots at the park in Davie FL.

very nice indeed... really like the first one. these little guys always seem to be frowning at you in a disapproving manner. would love to get some shots of one!

One day I would love to do that. I think it is worth visiting that place all the way from Seattle. Maybe I should adk my wife if we can bring the kids to Disney World than I can spend a day just for burrowing owls. Are they there all year round? Thanks

I have seen them throughout the year but mainly around winter/spring time. Over the last 3 years I have seen at least one at Tree Tops Park (Davie), Vista View Park (Davie), Brian Piccolo Park (Cooper City), Central Broward Regional Park (Lauderhill) and Driftwood Middle School (Hollywood)..

Very nice

We have them year round in a few spots.
Nice photos for sure.

They do have great personalities.
