Great Horned Owlets - March, 2016
These owlets fell out of their nest and were rescued by a kind family that allowed me to come by and photograph their wonderful work. The two parents were in the trees nearby and all were doing well. Check out the Eastside Audubon Facebook page for a video the family, who wishes to remain anonymous, made about the rescue.
A young great horned owlet perches on a tree branch, its keen eyes gazing directly at the camera. The intricate details of its feathers are beautifully captured against the backdrop of blurred branches!!!
I have walked under this tree several times this week without noticing these three Owlets. Tonight I heard a strange noise and looked up. I am quite surprised they would pick a tree like this to nest in as its under quite a busy path.
This is a portrait of a barred owlet perched on a tree. Usually they are always very high up in the trees , on this occasion though , this owlet found a very nice perch with beautiful late afternoon light in the background. Taken in Lakeland Florida.
I have been watching the mother Great Horned Owl sit on her eggs for a few weeks and this is the result.
