Skywatch Friday - Owl in the Sunset

This is a Burrowing Owl silhouetted in a sunset west of Goodyear. He was squawking at me the entire time. I wanted him to fly so I could try and catch a shot of that, but he wouldn't cooperate.

Whooo You Talking To?

One of our well-known Arizona sunsets and a burrowing owl sitting on a very well-used perch from the looks of it.

Peekaboo - I see you.

He was peeking out from his burrow early one morning.

There is a very old cemetery in Buckeye. Today while helping a friend find a

family member's gravesite, we were watched constantly by several

of these Burrowing Owls. They would move silently from perch to perch. 

We wouldn't hear them moving, but we would look up and there they were. 

They take their vigil seriously and were very happy when we left.
