.: Project- Antioch Burrowing Owls :.
July 23rd
I had intended to keep a snippet of details regarding the plight of the Antioch owls in this section, but as the battle heated up early in the year I lost track of posting new details. This was especially true since I was trying to keep a valid "owl count" from prying eyes; owls returned to only be evicted again. Well, as of July the burrowing owl and ground squirrel population has remained at a disheartening zero.
Although things are bleak for "my" owls, I am happy to say that my burrowing owl conservation activities have moved to the next level within the city, county, state and nation because there are more colonies that are in dire need of assistance.
With that said, keep an eye on Journowl.com and head on over to a new organization that is dedicated to turning a declining population into a thriving population.

Scott,
Just though I would let you know that I now have a webcam on my front lawn watching the family of Burrowing Owls that live there. The cam is viewable during daylight hours in SW Florida (EST). The website is under construction, but the cam is live.
Beverly
Thanks for the link Beverly! I’m glad you posted a sign as that is exactly what I have begun to do out my way. Cars can be quite dangerous and recently I discovered an owl that had been killed by an auto collision.
Cheers,
Scott
