Burrowing Owl

Athene cunicularia - A small long-legged diurnal owl of the plains, locally common, usually nesting in prairie dog "towns." Frequently bobs up and down. Perches on the ground or on a fencepost. Hovers when hunting. Distinguished from all other owls except the Barn Owl by sandy color and long legs. Nests in burrows. Calls are a cackling alarm note and, at night, a 2-note coo-c-o-o.
