See Burrowing Owl around Salton Sea, California
The burrowing owl has it all figured out. A small owl about as tall as a robin, just a little plumper, this daytime owl knows how to live the good life. Build its own home from scratch? Nah! Burrowing owls move into old prairie dog and squirrel burrows and do a little light redecorating. They collect bits of metal foil, bottle caps, and other pieces of trash for the entrances of their homes--possibly to signify that this burrow’s taken, folks!
The owls can be found in the south end of salton sea. A good place is along concrete canals adjacent to crops.
Unlike most owls, burrowing owls are often active around dusk and dawn, although they tend to avoid the heat of midday.
Sonny Bono National Wildlife Refuge have been helping the owls by installing artificial plastic burrows.
