Baby Burrowing Owl

Baby Burrowing Owl
Not a good quality photo, as it was taken indoors. When a friend and I went down to the Coaldale Bird of Prey Centre in the summer of 2007, this little guy and two (?) others were in an open crate inside the Visitor Centre. They were about one month old. Interesting that their eyes are white, but they will become yellow when they become adults. One of the workers there lifted them out and on to the floor, where they "explored" their freedom, including pecking on my shoe, LOL. Just adorable little things. Later in the day, I had an adult Burrowing Owl sitting on my arm : )
