Here is another Northern Saw Whet Owl in a different natural nest cavity.
This was probably the most rewarding spring in my nature photography journey! Working with a few other friends to accomplish many things that required a little knowledge, skill or just plain hard work.
This mother stayed on her nest of four babies for approximately 18 days - just like what the books say… can confirm that is accurate first hand! Then dad came in and fed them daily until they fledged!
Awesome Photo - looks like they new a photo was being taken
It’s hard to sneak up on an owl, especially an owl momma!
“Okay Mike - ONE more photo, then I gotta get back okay? What, do you want the serious-owl-momma face again? Okay . . . here”
