Barred Owl Family Update:
Our Barred Owl family is thriving!
The two Owlets continue to mature rapidly!
They are moving through the woods with increasingly greater ease. Their flights are getting longer and more confident. They are getting really good at hiding in the tree canopy!
However, the Owlets don’t appear to have started hunting yet, and remain dependent on ample food provided by Mama and Papa Barred Owls, both proficient hunters.
Today, I would like to share several recent images of the two Barred Owlets, and of Mama Barred Owl, from June 11th and 13th.
Enjoy!
Stay safe and have a great day!
