Afternoon nap time

Afternoon nap time
Here is a poor, lightened photo of the new baby Great Horned Owl from the family that I watch closely. All the closer photos I took today turned out really useless - this one is the "best ." My camera just won't handle shots taken in amongst the trees, especially on a grey, dull day like today. What a mess there is on the ground everywhere - lots of downy feathers from this little guy/gal (can anyone tell which it is??), feathers from birds that have been eaten, a dead whole sparrow, and of course white droppings everywhere. I actually saw Mom fly across the grove of trees and back, just as I arrived. She sat a few branches higher than Baby, in the same tree - but a different tree from a few days ago.
