They were imported by early settlers and have established themselves in most of the major towns and cities.

Interesting. It looks just the same as ours. I often take pics of sparrows. I like 'em!

Nice work. They must be kinda rare. I haven't seen anyone post one yet.

Thanks, only here during migration.

Even with all the "wrongs", it's still a great photo!!! the chance to see this again out in the wild is slim to none. Great capture!!!

Harry

Thanks, Harry. I'd agree that another chance to see a whole family of owls "posing" for photo like this is slim to none. Since then I have seen burrowing owls in various family settings but they were all running/flying around doing their owl thing, not sitting still posing like this :-)
