The Burrowing Owl
Couldn’t entice this little guy to come out of his burrow and pose for a portrait, so I settled for a head shot…Life is Good !!!
Burrowing Owls are small, sandy colored owls with bright-yellow eyes. They live underground in burrows they’ve dug themselves or taken over from a prairie dog, ground squirrel, or tortoise. They live in grasslands, deserts, and other open habitats, where they hunt mainly insects and rodents. Their numbers have declined sharply with human alteration of their habitat and the decline of prairie dogs and ground squirrels.
Before laying eggs, Burrowing Owls carpet the entrances to their homes with animal dung, which attracts dung beetles and other insects that the owls then catch and eat. They may also collect bottle caps, metal foil, cigarette butts, paper scraps, and other bits of trash at the entrance, possibly signifying that the burrow is occupied.
Burrowing Owls have a higher tolerance for carbon dioxide than other birds—an adaptation found in other burrowing animals, which spend long periods underground, where the gas can accumulate to higher levels than found above ground.
Unlike most owls in which the female is larger than the male, the sexes of the Burrowing Owl are the same size.
Burrowing Owls often stow extra food to ensure an adequate supply during incubation and brooding. When food is plentiful, the birds' underground larders can reach prodigious sizes. One cache observed in Saskatchewan in 1997 contained more than 200 rodents.
The oldest known Burrowing Owl was at least 9 years, 11 months old when it was sighted in California in 2014.

I love Peony Tulps & these are very pretty, colours & shape. I thought the wavy leaves were lovely too.
Every so often a miricle happens right before your eyes & nature takes your breath away & glows your soul, like it did on this particular day!
Looking out my front window, I was blessed to see this beautiful sunset! Wishing all of you a magical sunset too my friends =)
However, true beauty is in the way you hold yourself. It's how you treat people. The way you love. It's self acceptance. Beauty is in your soul.

The way a recent Saturday began.
This was my reward for being up early that morning.
Looking East over Lake Emerald, in Oakland Park, Florida -US- near Fort Lauderdale.
Shot from my balcony, early Saturday morning, December 8, 2007 .
Seen best in LARGER VIEW.
See WHERE THIS WAS TAKEN. ( When map appears, click "Hybrid" and "+" sign for best map view.)
Poeke Castle, a moated castle in neoclassical style, is situated in a vast park intersected by numerous avenues. The castle's core dates to 1750 and was modified in 1872.
Belgium has a total of more than 3,000 castles and therefore holds the world record for the largest number of castles per square meter.
Roses from my summer garden, such joyful beauties! Hope they also bring you joy to view them my friends =) Best viewed large!
