*Turns head to look back* ... Unlike many other owl species, Burrowing Owls are active during the day. They hunt for insects, small mammals, and reptiles. These owls are known for their preference for open, grassland habitats. Often they live in burrows dug by other animals, such as prairie dogs or ground squirrels.   . 👏📸blakehesswildlife & Colorado Outdoors annual photography magazine issue. . . . #wildlifephotography #coloradowildlife #coloradophotography #burrowingowl #owls #coloradobirds #birdsofinstagram🐦 #birdphotography #birdlovers #colorado
