Owls

One of the most common bird problems is birders and photographers HARASSING OWLS. Especially i they are not facing the photographer or birders way. It could really stress the bird out and could lead to death. When I enter owls on eBird I usually enter the town I saw it in.
Just making sure nobody on iNat is harassing owls!

Descrição

I don't want to put actual location as many people have been harassing these owls. Also it has a injured eye

I agree! That is why I did not pinpoint the exact location of where I saw the Burrowing Owls. I didn't even have to get out of my car to photograph them. So I was able to stay a distance. The location of the owls was given to me in confidence to protect them, so I honored that.

@thatkazakhbirder @azbirdsandblooms I read an article, it was about birders harassing the endangered Short-eared Owl. Most of the time, owls are harassed for no reason. One of the birders wrote in a eBird report o a Long-eared Owl "... there is no reason to harass the bird, as I got good looks of it
