Young burrowing owlets are at play while their parents work on some home improvements.

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.
