Fossil Discoveries of Burrowing Owls

Beverly Ahlering Saltonstall,in her new book, Cape Coral Burrowing Owls Don’t Hoot, writes about a most interesting species of owl to debunk some of the misconceptions around them. She wants to spread awareness about burrowing owls with updated facts and figures that she gathered by observing them firsthand and from other resources relevant to her research. She notes that one of the oldest birds in the world is also one of the friendliest and mysterious ones, often misunderstood to be harmful and found to be uninterested by most people —owls, or more specifically, burrowing owls. The oldest evidence that the owls have existed is from sixty-one million years ago, a little over some time after the dinosaurs went extinct; the fossils were found in what is now considered to be Colorado. Meanwhile, fossils of burrowing owls that were larger than the existing ones were found in Idaho deposits and Kansas about five thousand and three hundred to two thousand and six hundred million years ago. Burrowing owls were birds whose ancestors existed during the ice age about two thousand and four hundred million years ago. Some of these species are assumed to be land dwellers because of the size of the fossils discovered, which weigh about 9 pounds, or 9 kilograms, with a height of three feet and seven inches, or about one meter more or less. These measurements of the fossil prove that the early species of the owls, also known as the Giant Owl, whose presence was recorded in Cuba, were probably flightless with their massive structures. Knowing about the origins of burrowing owls helps us understand them a bit better. With precisely this thought in mind, Saltonstall wrote her book in an informative yet simplistic way that keeps the reader engaged and intrigued, all the while loving the birds even more. So, grab your copy of the book and gain an extensive amount of knowledge about burrowing owls!

A New Look in the Lives of Cape, Burrowing Owls

Okay, so if there is one thing everyone reading this blog can agree on, it is that owls are the most intriguing little things ever; otherwise, you wouldn’t be here reading blogs about them. Well, don’t worry, you’re not the only one to have this opinion; in fact, the author of the book Cape Coral Burrowing Owls Don’t Hoot, Beverly Saltonstall, shares your opinion. In her book, Saltonstall writes about the species that is home to the state of Florida, USA —Burrowing Owls. The largest population of these charismatic birds are largely populated in the city of Cape Coral, also home to the author herself. Saltonstall moved to Cape Coral in 2001, and she, as curious and opportune as an early bird (the pun came from the author herself, not me!), in exploring the surrounding areas of her town, discovered crosses erected all across the town in the empty fields and even the lots in front of the people’s homes. Of course, the first thought went to pets lost to their owners (I mean, let’s be real, we all would think that), but the more she explored, the more she negated herself, until finally, one day, she saw a tiny little owl with wide, round eyes and a curious expression that mirrored Saltonstall’s. The owl blended in so well with the land that it was a coincidence that she even noticed it. A little research showed that these owl species —Burrowing Owls — made their nests in the ground, explaining the need for wood crosses all over Cape Coral since there had been many incidents revolving around them. The more Beverly knew about these birds, the more she fell in love with them and their friendly and goofy personalities, and she decided to write a book about them. Her love for these funny little birds shows throughout her book, as she talks about their personalities, habitats, lifestyles, and everything else you need to know about them! So for all of us owl-loving fellows out there, I highly recommend this book, written in a simple, factually correct, and encyclopedic manner, to get to know the burrowing owls personally!
