Owls Underground

Some owls in El Paso have a fancy new home, complete with a surveillance system, giving researchers a bird’s-eye view of owl life. Meet a Texas Parks and Wildlife biologist tapping technology to study the hidden lives of burrowing owls.

    This one is really good, but MPG Angela Farm- Burrowing Owls is still my favorite. It shows the entire growth cycle of a brood of chicks and the narration is subtly geeky in a great way. kzread.info/dash/bejne/oYWEu8F6mtXRfNI.html

    What a wonderful 10-minute video about our own Urban Wildlife Biologist, Lois Balin and her study of burrowing owls in our Chihuahuan Desert and Rio Bosque Wetlands Park.

    One of the most disturbing and glaring errors of thought in the US is that feeding wildlife is bad. How ridiculous!It is not okay to take away the homes of animals and then not take care of them. Feeding them gives them a chance to survive what people have taken away from them. If they’re not going to hurt you feed them.It is inhumane to not feed animals. It is our God-given responsibility. Some states have made laws that make feeding wildlife illegal. That is inexcusable. You can’t come up with one good reason why that is necessary. This world is too evil. This nation is the most evil I the world.

    1. They can become reliant on human food and lose the ability to hunt, causing them to starve to death. 2. Some foods can be toxic to some animals, and people will feed it to them without doing research, poisoning the animals. I came up with two. I could probably come up with more given time to think about it.
