From Ahjet Lin

The Burrowing Owl reaches speeds of up to 145 mph / 235 kmh and plows headfirst like this into the hillside to carve out its burrow. After that, it really needs a place to rest its head!

Gotcha! They just use old holes from badgers and such! 🤣

They are quite aerodynamic though, aren't they?

I like the landing gear coming out here in these other photos.
