Burrowing Owl vs Marmot - Lemmy.World

[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/254c02f3-1f00-4041-abab-1e88d451fc4d.jpeg] From Fei Cheng [https://www.facebook.com/groups/wwbirders/permalink/3863232230654453/] > Burrowing owls and marmots are generally peaceful neighbors, but occasional territory disputes do arise. Fortunately, no harm was done this time. The marmot, ever humble, eventually backed off. I imagine the burrowing owl didn’t truly intend to attack-after all, the marmot may have been the original architect of the burrow the owl now calls home. > >It was a joy to witness this brief drama and the fascinating way these wild creatures share their space. > >Central WA
