Great Horned Owls today. One baby brave enough to venture a ways from the nest, one on the edge, and a third who just isn't interested yet. They will all be out of the nest very soon.
Mom (left) was feeding the eldest youngster this morning. Even though this one took its first couple of short flights today, the parents will continue to provide food for a while.
A trick mama owls use to get young owls to practice flight is to wave food in front of them, then fly a short distance away to get the young one to fly over to get the snack.
