Burrowing Owls are so captivating that they’ll keep a smile on your face the entire time you’re watching them but when two of them are together, oh my! Which one do you focus on?? This pair kept their eyes on the surrounding fields, whatever was in the sky above them, and, us. My Sibley Birds App has kept me apprised of relevant information about the birds we photographed in Florida, including the Burrowing Owls. In fact, while Burrowing owls tend to occupy dens and burrows abandoned by other critters, in Florida, they often dig their own burrows. The soil is very sandy and the owl on the left spent some time remodeling the burrow, sending waves of sand into the air behind him and onto his mate who sat unmoving as the sand cascaded over and around.
