It was simply amazing while it lasted - and now it's all over : ) These two beautiful little Great Horned Owlets have finally fledged and now spend their days and nights high up in the trees, pretty well hidden and too far for photographs. They go from little balls of fluff to perching on the top edge of their nesting tree so quickly and then, blink, and they have gone, lol. I was down there on just two evenings last week and they must have been the best two evenings for seeing these little guys. Most of the time, the light was not good, but on each evening, there was a bit of time when the sunlight was just beautiful. By the way, they don't just sit like this all the time, but are constantly moving, climbing over each other, focussing on balancing on the edge of the tree cavity, and exercising those wings. Can't begin to describe how thankful I am to have been there! There are a number of Canada Geese nesting in the same location and you know how noisy they are, especially if a dispute is going one. They "entertained" these owlets and I caught them both focussed on the same action at the same time, ha. Good luck, little owls - hope you live a safe, long life. Taken in Fish Creek Park on 10 May 2013.
