Another neat bird from yesterday was this Burrowing Owl that was holding steady on the debris line of Holly Beach. I'm not sure how early this bird is compared to other fall records, but I was surprised to see a Burrowing Owl on August 20.
Burrowing Owls are rare migrants and winter residents in Louisiana. Our birds would seem to come from the Great Plains and western states, where they are common sights around prairie dog towns.
