Green Eyed Owl
This is one bird that never disappoints. Right off of Mace Blvd in Davis on road 30b there are signs that say “Burrowing Owls” and if you drive through, really slowly, look carefully and you just might catch a glimpse of a rounded head with bright green eyes. We managed to get this image by using our car as a hide. They live underground in burrows they’ve dug themselves or taken over from a prairie dog, ground squirrel, or tortoise. Their numbers have declined sharply with human alteration of their habitat and the decline of prairie dogs and ground squirrels.
