Burrowing Owl

This morning three of us traveled over the Richmond San Rafael Bridge to the Mysterious East Bay to see the endangered Burrowing Owl in the Berkeley Marina. There are only four of these small birds there, and they are protected by a fence and by warning signs. We were extremely fortunate to spot one of the little guys fairly close-up. They over-winter in the Berkeley Marina from October to April.
