Two images entitled - "FINAL GH OWL POSTINGS".

These images were taken on May 16, the last time that I saw all three Owls (Mom, Big Sister and Little Brother). Dad didn't seem to be around much for the previous two weeks.

Top image: Mom sharing lunch with Little Brother who managed to fly up high, close to mom, only two days after leaving the nest.


Big Sister perched on a lower branch of a tree not far from where Mom and little brother are having lunch. She's looking up at Mom, as if to say "when is it my turn? Lunch appears to be a big Squirrel.

Others have told me that Mom and both Owlets were seen high up in the trees a few days ago. Both young appeared to be doing well. Today (May 30) we found a large group of Crows making a racket in the area where the owls had been seen. We spotted Mom but didn't look for the young as our necks are still recuperating from two months of looking up.

Thank you all for the many nice comments on my SERIES of postings of this year's GH Owl family.
