What a great ...Bob and Cynthia have done it again! What a great birding day. I know how it feels to have the thousands of Snow Geese flying over by the morning light and to hear the haunting call of the Sandhill Cranes at the same time; awesome!<BR/><BR/>I must confess that of all the birds you were able to see that day, the Burrowing Owl is my all time favorite. Your captures of them are wonderful!<BR/><BR/>There are several organizations working to bring back the Burrowing Owl from their declining numbers. I hope to have some Burrowing Owl nesting sites built by next breeding season (2010) in Northern California!<BR/><BR/>If you're interested, see my post http://www.thebirdersreport.com/wild-birds/cavity-nesting/burrowing-owl-conservation-in-californiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33870372.post-29634554455442195142009-01-23T02:41:00.000+08:002009-01-23T02:41:00.000+08:00Very nice - love the Vermilion Flycatcher and Burr...Very nice - love the Vermilion Flycatcher and Burrowing Owl shots.
