p.1 #1 · #546 Burrowing Owl - Cape Coral, FL

Just before heading north from FL, stopped in Cape Coral to shoot some of their burrowing owls. This pose provided a wonderful opportunity for using a limited depth of field.

Cheers, and Good Luck to All.

Great portrait of the owl. The background colors really compliment the bird.

Thanks for the kind feedback on this, all. These guys were quite fun to watch.

Hey, Scott. They are actually quite small. Height range is between 8-11 inches. A tad larger than the American Robin. I'm up in Canada this week, and hoping to find a great grey owl. They are much larger. Range between 24-33 inches.

Cheers, and Good Luck to everyone this week.

Great pic...I have been looking for a great grey forever and apparently missed one in city limits last week mousing! Dangit.
Very nice and sharp!
Thanks for sharing!
