I went to Florida in May 2022. My 1st priority was to go to Brian Piccolo Park to photograph burrowing owls. Instead of one day, I ended up going there for 3 days. I obsessed with their big innocent eyes.
It was a rainy day in late afternoon. I was in and out of a car due to pouring rain. Finally there were 6 of them coming out of a hole. They were inactive and I could tell it was their naptimes as they closed their eyes almost all the time. Although there was a marching band practice nearby which was very loud, they still barely open their eyes.
After waiting in a position for a long time and I started to get sleepy, luck was on my side. A big dog came to rescue! It walked to toward them and barked repetitively. Suddenly, miracle happened. They all opened their eyes. My patience paid off. I snapped shots repetitively. Within seconds, most of them were gone.
I am a nature & wildlife newbie. But I can tell this is the best shot of my life. This picture alone made my whole trip well worth it.
This is the 1st time I post these pictures anywhere else besides my photography website. My family were very proud of this picture
