This is one of the two Great Horned Owlets from Sikome, Fish Creek Park. I dashed over there yesterday evening, after getting a phone call from a thoughtful friend (thanks so much, Phil!), and managed to get a couple of shots that are just about worth keeping. This little guy/gal had apparently been active, but when I arrived, it hauled itself up this tree and decided it would stay there : ) Couldn't find a clear view, unfortunately. Its sibling, who had also fledged, was much higher up in a nearby tree, and Mom and Dad were of course in other nearby trees. What beautiful creatures they are!
