20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
2022 Burrowing Owl

I drove down from Central Florida to visit Sanibel Island and on my way back home I specifically stopped in at Cape Coral to capture the burrowing owl which is a threatened species here in Florida due to the loss of habitat. I wanted to be able to show others this beautiful bird.
