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!

      It’s hard to sneak up on an owl, especially an owl momma!
