Great Horned Owlets – Days 30 to 33

Time for a Great Horned Owl family report. The owlets are growing fast, and this post does not even get me caught up to present day. I am still three days behind!

Once again, please do NOT post any images or share information to social media sites. While I have many social media accounts, I am NOT posting my own images, and will not till the owlets fledge (i.e. are able to fly). I know a number of you have figured out where the owls lived based upon:

  1. Knowing where I live
  2. Reviewing my images

I certainly want folks to enjoy the owlets and their parents, but I consider the nest in a vulnerable spot. Thank you. Now, let’s get on with the show.

Owlets – 30 Days Old … my best guess at their age … remember the younger owl is likely 3 to 6 days younger.

Owlets – 31 Days Old … Under an almost full Moon! Photos taken one hour after sunset.

Owlets – 32 Days Old

Owlets – 33 Days Old … Mom returns to the nest!

  1. Do u know when the pelicans will be ar st. Louis river. Last sunday there was some. Wed we went up to duluth over bong bridge saw many hawkes.

    1. There are pelicans at Chambers Grove right now. Visiting around 8:30 or 9:00 am is the best time. Later in the day more pelicans will be away fishing.

  2. they are precious and i hope people won’t go there this owl family knows you, but not others and based on experiences from our own yard- some people get way too close. sorry to sound grumpy, but their comfort, safety and peace of mind come first.
