powerful owl chick
a powerful owl family I monitor over winter had a big tree come down next to the next tree. must have made quite a noise, but for whatever reason, they didnt nest the usual time, we thought perhaps they didnt nest at all, or moved to a new hollow but had no joy finding them, but about a month ago, (about 2 months later than normal) they were observed with a chick. whilst we dont know where they nested yet, maybe even the same hollow after the cockatoos finished with it? but is great to see the have raised a chick
this chick is startng to get adult feathers on the breast. (the dark sports)
