Are you aware of owls? It’s International Owl Awareness Day and here are a few of my favourites: the burrowing owl who appears to be wearing pantaloons, the screech owl and the snowy owl, official bird of Quebec.

This Burrowing Owl is taking advantage of a broken slab of concrete for a home at the Anahuac Wildlife Refuge.

I’m not sure anything is more fun that watching a tiny burrowing owl go about it’s business. They’re just about as much personality as you could hope for in 6-Oz of feathers and legs.

Getting this shot took a lot of planning!
Every sunset, this would leave its burrow under the graffitied seawall at Ocean Beach, fly to a random perch, sit there for a few seconds and fly into the dark to hunt. Every night, I’d lay flat in front of a potential perch to get the shot. This was taken on the night I finally picked the same perch as the owl. (Repost. Previously posted on now-deleted server).

A in front of graffitied seawall in .

This shot took planning and persistence. The owl would come out of its burrow nightly just before sunset, fly out to a random perch on the beach and sit for about 30 seconds before taking off into the night to hunt.

Every night I’d lay flat in the sand in front of a possible perch it might choose and wait. This was taken the one time I chose the same spot as the owl!
