Neat. I wish we had burrowing owls around here. Unless it's short eared's in-fight, all my owl videos are of them sitting around too...just the way it is with owls! LOL

Thanks! Yep we are lucky they are nearby. Wish we had some short-eared this year but haven't heard/seen any so far. Often they are seen nearby for a few weeks.

I would love to get some action video of the burrowing owls that spend their winters near us. Unfortunately, they mostly stay at their burrow entrance, looking around. This video was taken with my Z9 and 800mm f/6.3 with the 1.4 TC handheld (so quite a ways away from the owl so as not to disturb them):

I still like it without the action. But I'd love to see some action by them also.

Never seen a video of them. Read an article about them in FL, very cool!

Thanks for looking and commenting! The ones in Florida seem to be more active? I have thought of going to Florida just to photograph them. We have quite a few near me. At one of our parks a birder told me there are actually 7 this year though I have only seen 2. But these are not residents, they are transients, only spending the winter here.
