Proud Mom


The last time I was at the Zoo ( a few weeks ago), this Great Gray Owl was in exactly the same place as she was today - on a rocky ledge that has a cavity at the back. I had wondered if maybe this was a nest area and I discovered today that I was right! While I photographed this Mom, a tiny white head would pop up every once in a while : ). Taller people were able to see two owlets behind the ledge. I am surprised that a Great Gray Owl would nest at the Zoo, especially as the aviary is a walk-through one, with nothing between Zoo visitors and the birds. This nest isn't many feet from the path, but there are trees in front of it, with a gap. Quite a feeling to stand there and look into these small eyes! A couple told me that they had been in there two days ago and the babies had not yet hatched. Can't wait for these little white guys to fledge so that I can see them properly!
