Smile for the selfie

"Why so serious?"

Alt-text: Two Athene cunicularia (burrowing owl) amidst a seemingly endless leveled grassland during daylight. One of them is very close to the camera, as if she were taking a selfie, staring directly at the camera with a serious and quite menacing expression. Behind her, not too far, the second owl is gazing at the sky.
