Burrowing Owl vs Marmot

From Fei Cheng
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.

Early supporters are just as cherished! 😁
Just a quick reminder, it's the last week of the "[lemmySilver](https://lemmy.world/post/27663919)" campaign to net us some real life funding for owl care.

Amazing photographs!
I really enjoyed these! That owl isn't taking any guff from any rodent, no matter how chonk!
Uh oh! You need the "!" before the lemmySilver to call the bot so your vote gets counted.
sorry,
thanks
(hope editing it makes it count 🤞)
It doesn't look like it grabbed it. It should do a quick auto reply when it reads it. It's usually very quick.
It has been interesting learning the quirks to how it works. 🙃
