Where do burrowing owls lay their eggs?

Answer 1

Burrowing owls (Athene cunicularia) normally lay between 3 and 12 eggs, with an average clutch size about 9 eggs. Eggs are not laid all on the same day, but at the rate of one per day or one every second day.

Answer 2

Burrowing owls tend to live near the ground. They never live in nests in trees, or anywhere that is not near the ground. They actually burrow, hence the name, and make nests on the ground normally near water, and improve their chosen place of nesting out of whatever they can find nearby. Actually, owls don't make their own nests, but instead improve other abandoned nests, or just try to improve their nesting place if one cannot find a nest, by adding little tufts of cotton, grass, sticks etc. In this case, Burrowing owls might take a few sticks that are laying nearby, and/or maybe some grass to improve someone else's nest, or try to improve their chosen place of nesting.
