Field Notes

Description:

Another shot of the Great Horned Owl fledgling. It stopped about half way up this stack of hay to watch me intently. I ended up watching him/her and his/her two siblings for about three hours and watch two get back up to the parents.

Update on this cute little guy. It is up and flying like it has been for years! And his two siblings are doing the same.
