had a nice session on the barn owl tonight managing a hat full of keepers for a change

The littlest owlet is left alone and looking out from the nest after the older one fledged. Mom now has two babies to keep an eye on in different locations.

This Short-eared Owl just seemed to want to pose. It was very relaxed, enjoying the beautiful day just like I was. One of those magical days when the weather, nature and good people relish the moments.
