Here's a little video for all the Eagle Owl lovers! Quite amazing! If you have seen it before, it's worth seeing again! Karenb asked me to post it here after I sent it to her!

Eagle Owl in flight!

Thanks Gemini! I have see this video many times and each time it's a delight to watch! Great photography!

I have s'capes to post but the afternoon and evening has gotten away from me. I will try to catch up with them tomorrow morning. Hope everyone has a wonderful evening!

The egg is very visible tonight. I can occasionally see the chicks peeking out from under Mom.



Added -

It's only 10-15 minutes later, but the cam has switched to color! I've added local time to our cam page - didn't include it initially because I intended to see if it was included in the stream - and then I got sidetracked....

A couple more pictures, then I'm off to bed -







Both chicks just clump-clumped over to the shade under Mom, in the way of chicks who are moving around fairly well - but not yet up on their "adult" feet (which I think is more like walking on tippy-toes for us - but it's too late for me to check the biology references for that!).

Good night, owls and people.
