My wife took a walk today while I went to take pictures....yes again. Tried to get the pair of owls on the nest but mom and dad took off and left the fledgling (baby) alone. I guess it's on its own now. Here's a few shots since I last it on 1/11/23 plus a couple of others from this week. Enjoy!

Beautiful set. The teenage owlet looks pudgy and well fed. He will likely slim down when he has to get his own food.

Very good ones, Jim! I’ve never been this lucky to meet an Owl in the wild.
