Shot these two in GTNP in spring in the hole of a tree used the past few years by the parents. Amazing how fast they grow. Usually ready to fledge in about 5 weeks.

I love the way the two are leaning into each other and how they are looking in the same direction but not at the camera. Very nicely done. Great find.

Well seen, the feathers and tree are so close in color. Great expressions.

Nothing like baby owls for cuteness, Roger. I like the way they lean together. :toast:

Really a sweet image Roger, love the eyes on the chicks and the closeness they are exhibiting.

Just enough of the cavity to show the little ones off. Very nice capture and comp.

I bet a lot of people miss these with that camoflage. Cute little fellows cuddling up together makes for a fine image. Lovely lighting on the subjects and the stare and eyes are excellent. Graham
