@[email protected] is singlehandedly keeping this place alive so I thought I’d also participate and share a photo I took last month. This is a burrowing owl I photographed on the grounds of a hotel in Brasilia. A couple of these guys made their burrow in a little hole hill at the bottom of the garden and were seemingly unbothered by hotel guests that were walking past. I have a couple of other shots but this is my favourite. Thanks for all your superb owl posts anon6789!
Cool I did not know that, thank you for sharing! Brasilia is somewhat ‘central’ so this makes sense. Here’s a few more shots of the same couple.
I really like them with the tropical “tan.”
That golden yellow/brown on the leading edge of the wing of the first one is extra flashy. Love it!
