Description:
The population size of burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia)
in Washington is low. The burrowing owl is a state candidate species. This species is associated with shrubsteppe and grassland habitats, and has experienced a contraction of its range and decline in numbers due to loss of habitat and persecution of mammalian species that provide earthen burrows that owls use.
