I had been watching this pair of Burrowing Owls since last year. Their burrow had collapsed during heavy rains around February. They relocated and were successful this time around with three owlets

Taken early morning, just after brief rainfall.

Here's a little look at the location where these were shot and my setup. That's my wife in the corner with a 300 f/4.
