Thanks guys. There were three owlets in the nest, but the cavity was/is so deep, All three and the mom could be in it and not be seen. These owls have moved on in the last week, but now the baby barred owls are coming out. Another week of two and the heron rookery should be over run with babies. Fun time of year to go out and take nature pics. davev
