Colombia - Wild and Free

Fun with the Burrowing Owls

Life can be hard on the plains of Los Llanos, but fortunately there is one animal who finds time for some fun: the Burrowing Owl. True to their name, these owls live in burrows a few feet below the surface of the ground. The owl's long legs make them well-suited for all kinds of fun and games, especially if young owlets are involved.
