A Burrowing Owl was photographed in Brooklyn this morning, at the Lowe’s in Kings Plaza on Avenue U at Flatbush in Brooklyn. The photo shows the bird resting on a black metal fence alongside some shrink-wrapped containers.
The person who found it is not a birder but sent the photo to Tom O'Donnell, a birding friend who lives in western NYS. Knowing my name and email from NYSOA, Tom sent the photo and info to me, and I'm sharing it with the birding community.
