New babies

Post by managermania » Tue Aug 23, 2011 7:38 pm

I have 2 pairs of owls that have been producing great offspring. Below is a pic of the babies from my 3rd pair. The 4th pair is too young right now.

There are 5 babies that I can count so far. 4 look well fed and 1 not so much. This is the first time I have opened a nest box and taken a photo. I will now leave them totally alone and let nature take its course.
