Doubles! Great Horned Owlets!

Anyone remember the classic Doublemint Gum commercials? The gum’s slogan was: Double Your Pleasure. Double Your Fun! My morning followed the advertising jingle.

Arriving in the woods around 6:30 am I could not find any owls … parents or young in the nest or perched in the tree. However, a search of the surrounding forest finally yielded not one, but two owlets! My guess was the young owl I saw yesterday which had not yet fledged was being protected by the Mom,  Given all the crows in the area, now that both owlets have fledged, moving to a new tree was a good idea. Thus, I am proud to report that Les and Amy (Great Horned Owl parents) have not just one, but two young owlets.” I doubled my fun!” Enjoy …
