The Owlets are really growing!
It’s St. Patrick’s Day in Savannah! The Owlets are getting so big, and they’re hungry all the time. Mom brought food at around 5:00 and the owlets got to eat their fill, but she’s been gone for a while now and we get to see the owlets show off their wings with all their growing feathers. When will they start exploring the branches and trying these new wings? Stay tuned!
Rick,
do you think that this is the same GHO from last year?
Mike – according to Karla Bloom of the International Owl Center in MN, the voiceprints confirm that this is the same pair as last year. That must explain how they’re so good at rearing owlets – they’ve probably done so at least several times!
