This adventure began one day after I came upon a sign in the park, saying it was the home of Barred Owls, and to be cautious, because the adults could be protective if they were nesting, or had baby owls in training.
As luck would have it, there were baby owls in the nest!!!! I continued visiting the park until I could see first the top of the head of the mother owl, and finally after weeks of patience, a baby owl emerged, and then another!!!!
I had not had my camera out for quite some time, and this magic of life being experienced before my eyes begged to be captured, and shared. Eight hundred some photos later, here I am, trying to find the best to share with you. Hopefully they will bring you as many smiles as they have brought me.
