Burrowing Owl in the Awkward Phase of Life

From Jen Marie

A face only a mother could love. This baby burrowing owl was patiently waiting for mom or dad to come back with a meal.

Did you know that a burrowing owls clutch of eggs can contain as many as 12 eggs? Juveniles are ready to walk around outside the burrow at two weeks but will not leave the nest for about six weeks.
