I was very lucky to come across a family of burrowing owls in early July. I have spent some time with them as the young ones learn to fly. 

Thanks for looking. To see larger image click on it.

A very unique shot of this family of young owls. Great poses, with eyes showing on all five, and the owl in the air, with arched wings over those below, is the perfect finishing touch. Well done, Boyd.

Lovely warm light enhances this beautiful shot- -very nice composition with the one in flight hovering over. This is a "must click on". Delightful!
