so all have fledged and it looks as though the male and female have their nest back for daytime roosting!

so who knew....this pair are on their second clutch of the season...my last s'cap she was actually incubating 2 eggs with with the first being laid on May 20th or 21st....

05/21/2010 Looks like we have a SECOND CLUTCH started. From your posts I think first egg laid late 05/20 or early morning today. If anyone has a more specific date/time, email me and I’ll update. Pete

Observers say there are 2 eggs now!

Second Clutch has 3 eggs so far.....

here are the "Starrs" of the second clutch!

caught a glimpse of the second clutch....4 eggs!

Video: Starr Ranch Barn Owls Have a Second Clutch

awesome video beans and awesome new PTZ cam....

05/31/10 7:45AM PST The PTZ will be the main cam for now ( I suspect you’ve figured out the cam in the lower left is the IR cam.) Two things: 1) When using the PTZ at night it looks like there’s a spotlight on the cavity. That’s the infrared LEDs from the other cam that have been on the whole time (>3 years). We can’t see this light naked eye and either can the owls – but the camera picks it up nicely. 2) From time to time I will be working the PTZ cam. If you watched a few minutes ago I zoomed in and read her band and also had some closeups of the eggs, etc.. Because the cam works best in black and white at night I have been manually switching btw it and color (you’ll see the menu come up when I do this) – I haven’t yet got the settings to where this will happen automatically. Anyway, I’ll be making the color to B/W switch around 8PM PST most nights and also work the PTZ. Last night had great closeup of her downing a woodrat. Pete

6/10/10 Here are the egg dates for this clutch. Incubation is a day or so either side of 30 days. BTW, I WILL clean up all the text in this static area and put most on an FAQ page…so much to do, so little time. TX for your patience. Pete
