The Great Horned Owl Family - April 28, 2013

What a thrill to see the owl family today. Many people were out to see the owls (many with children) and they were all very respectful of the owls. Both are flying and seem to be doing well. I was so happy to see both owlettes today with Anne I. Last three shots are 2nd owlette
