Burrowing Owl Update

Thanks again to Nancy Richie for her fascinating presentation on Marco Island's burrowing owls, conducted on March 31 at an owl burrow on Cameo Ct.

Our group of owl-watchers shot photos and asked questions in the presence of a pair with eggs in the burrow on March 31. Nancy tells us that the two chicks (so far) have hatched are appearing at the burrow entrance now ... a welcome sight. If you'd like to see where you can view Marco Island wildlife like the burrowing owl and gopher tortoise, check out the map on our website:
