Potted Owl has visit by Pappa-9-4-11

That's all for tonight! I will be shutting down my computer this evening and not running a video as we are expecting storms to roll through. Good night Bev and all! See you all tomorrow!

Thanks Jean.. great job on the video.. take care.. hate those storms.. Good Night Jean, Birdofprey and all.. Pleasant dreams.. see you all later...

Mom Owl is bright and alert

Thanks for all the scaps and videos, Jean and Bev. How nice to see PaPa make a visit!
I enjoyed reading the "backstory" and seeing the photos of the yard and balcony, and the owl family perched on the rail.

I didn't start following this nest last year till after Tiny had been rehabbed and returned to the nest, and the 2 older ones had begun to explore the balcony.

I hope the storm is not too bad, Jean.

Great pictures and video! I don't often watch at this time of day - she's very pretty in color.

Good Morning Johannesburg.. Monday Sept 5, 2011.

Good Morning Jean, birdofprey and JudyB.. Nice caps of Mom earlier this morning.. you were up late or early this morning JudyB..

Jean.. Hope the storms passed over quickly...

Rocking motion and settling on them

Incubating them

Whooooo Hoooooooo 3 eggs!

Darn..... sure wish I had been able to run the video last night. I might have caught her laying the 3rd one. The storm never hit here afterall. Just a tad of rain.... Not even enough to measure. But it's better to be safe than sorry. Certainly wouldn't want to lose all my technical stuff Don put on this computer!!!


Mom is resting while incubating her eggs. She must be tired out now!! Great job Potted Plant Owl!!!
