There is a Burrowing Owl's nest/hole that I drive past almost daily a block from my home. Most times I overlook them cause they are always around. Here are a couple of shots from a few days ago. They are so used to people. Uncropped shots.

Beautiful images if this species Keith. Man I wish these guys were anywhere near here ...like within 500 miles would be nice. If i get to Florida or the the Prairie provinces up here, I will surely fill a couple of 2 gig cards if I see this species.

Really nice portraits Keith. They have to be very mellow owls to build in a human neighborhood.

Fantastic images of the owl, Keith. Beautiful pose, nice detail, and smooth creamy bokeh.
