@MrBaudieBiggie1 has been a visitor to beautiful Aruba for over two decades and for the first time got to see not only the nesting turtles hatch and race to the ocean…but also got to observe Aruba’s national symbol, Shoco burrowing owl which is Aruba’s national symbol.
Here is a video of our time with Claudia's Mosaic. Claudie came to ABC Aruba Beach Club and helped my friend Barb and I create Shoco owls from an assortment of mosaics sea glass, china, glass, basically anything considered garbage as no shells are included. We had a delightful time and I highly recommend her. She can be reached via Facebook / claudia.vankessel.3

Here's a little about Aruba's Shoco Burrowing Owl
The Shoco
Meet Aruba’s Burrowing Owl: The Shoco Aruba island’s national symbol, Aruba’s burrowing owl… the Shoco:
• The Shoco is an endemic subspecies, meaning this type of burrowing owl is only found in Aruba.
• Shocos are currently considered endangered.
• The Shoco is Aruba’s National Symbol.
• Shocos prefer open areas, specifically mudflats and sandy areas for nesting and hunting.
• They are very small owls! They reach up to only about 20 centimeters in height.
• There are approximately two nesting seasons per year, they can lay up to five eggs every nesting season.
• These lovebirds are monogamous and typically remain with the same partner throughout their entire life.
• The top Shoco predators are all human-introduced animals (such as dogs, cats and boas).
• As part of the local Shoco Conservation Program, Fundacion Parke Nacional Aruba (FPNA), together with the Aruba Birdlife Conservation and the Global Owl Project, focus on creating, protecting, and monitoring artificial Shoco nests across the island.
