Video: Five Baby Barn Owls & One Large Rat

Wow! Pete goes up the tree, cleans the lens, sprays the ants with a solution of water & detergent, adjusts the cam, and counts the babies!

Leslie, just read your post. I can't believe it! We got the same picture! It's so awful, I almost didn't post mine.... had fun watching all of that... but my video is TOO LONG: 10 minutes. You'll notice that Dad moved the rat at the end. Guess he didn't like where Pete put it?

And Leslie, you were right about the rats. Yep, a big wood rat, almost as large as Dad. And you also saw five babies yesterday.

It won't hurt to have two videos of all this action.

how did you get your video to load so fast on the Tube?

I've been having a lot of trouble with YT, but tonight it worked. Post a link to your video, so we can comment on it. Your videos are the best!

I'm going to post some other pics....

Dad moves the rat

After Pete made his adjustments, mom didn't return right away, and when she did, she had Dad with her.

Finally here is my video....I included Pete's cell phone going off!

Lens gets cleaned, Ant control and head count

Excellent video, as usual. Mom was NOT pleased....
