3 is a Crowd - Owlets

This was the ONLY photo opp of the 3 eastern screech owlets at the cavity together. As you can see, there simply wasn't enough room and the youngest got squeezed out by its siblings.

This photo opp resulted from volunteering. Last year the City was planning on cutting this nest tree down until a nearby resident who was aware of the nest called a rehabber. The rehabber asked me to drive over there (about an hour drive), take pictures of the tree and cavity. By the next day she had saved the tree and nest, as well as 3 young from last year and 3 more from this year. Volunteering can be fun, satisfying and can offer amazing opportunities.

C & C most welcomed and much appreciated.
