Good Morning & Owlprowl, Welcome!

This is our first year with this camera; We were watching the Tawny Owls for many years and never saw them back to nest.

We'll have to wait and see in the future. At the first weeks they'll be in the lower area, because they are still practicing their flight. Perhaps later they'll come :thumbs:

I see other fledged owlets come back like around feeding time briefly (maybe it makes it easier for parent to find them) this is the first nest of eagle owls I have seen. Thanks so much for providing all the great audio/video!
The owlets cannot fly much yet, so they cannot get to the nest yet. By the time they start flying well they'll start learning hunting.

Maggy :rotf:

The pair of legs inspired Dad and he gave a long concert :whistling:

He left the decoration in the center and looked around:"where is my sweet family?" :puzzled:
