The #falcons may have lost, but the birders won Twitter with #Superb_Owls vs. #Superbowl

Was fun yesterday watching all the punny posts about #Superb_Owls. I really love owls. I posted some too and also made a Storify of some of the posts of the day. Here are mine:

Burrowing Owls on Wildhorse Ag Buffer Trail

In addition to the crawdads, the burrowing owls have been out in full force on the Wildhorse Ag buffer trail recently. There are at least 20 if not more living in the tunnels along the trail. Always entertaining.
