She looks pretty upset! Looking forward to more pictures of these. What kind of owls are they?

Cool capture. You want to give nests some distance when viewing. The parents can get very protective. They had to close off part of one of our streets because of a hawk's nest. The parents swooped on a few pedestrians. One lady got a few scratches and had her sunglasses knocked off.

Wouldn't want to tangle with a ticked off owl (or any bird of prey). Those talons are a tad sharp :uhoh These little owls are cute. I have never seen burrowing owls. Looking forward to seeing the babies if/when you can get pictures of them... safely. :):
