Burrowing owl hunting behavior....In the first set of shots #2-5, I was setup for the owls at 50 feet away, when the male flew up to me and landed 20 feet away behind a cluster of daisies. I stayed put knowing it would spook if I changed my position. I waited and it eventually came out into the open. Apparently, the male caught a lizard, which he brought down into the burrow to feed the owlets. But not before he partook and pinched off the tail and ate that first.
