These guys are also called "Urban Owls". Many of them live in crowded suburbs
and are used to human interaction. Because so many empty lots are being developed
the local "Burrowing Owl Association" is offering people money to allow the owls
to live on their property.
Thanks for liking it! It's my all time favorite.
